Abstract
A method and a system for diagnosing the operating state of one or more railroad components of a railroad network for rail transport. The railroad components each have at least a first measuring device for measuring first measurement values of at least one measurement variable for describing the operating state of the railroad component. The novel method includes the following steps: measuring the first measurement values by way of the first measuring device; measuring additional, second measurement values, which are independent of the operating state of the railroad components, by way of at least one additional, second measuring device; transmitting the measurement values to a control center situated along the tracks; evaluating the measurement values in the control center by way of a predefined algorithm, and providing at least one result of the evaluation as an output.
