This paper proposes a model-based fault detection (FD) method with application to railway switch & crossing (S&C) systems. These systems are safety critical assets in the rail network and they daily exposed to harsh working conditions and severe environment, which make them more vulnerable to failures and breakdowns. Therefore, it is critical to implement a condition monitoring (CM) technique to enhance the reliability and the availability of these S&C systems. To-the-end of reducing the scheduled maintenance process and decreasing the possible number of delays and/or accidents. This paper thus, proposes a simple model-based technique, a modified residual-based technique, which can be implemented in the real rail network for FD with application to railway electro-mechanical switch system.
