Analyzing fault logs and continuous data for diagnostics for a locomotive

A system for analyzing a malfunctioning machine, said system comprising:

• means for receiving, from the malfunctioning machine comprising a locomotive engine, at least one of at least one fault code and at least one data pack code, at least one fault code and at least one anomaly code, and at least one data code and at least one anomaly code wherein each fault code is associated with an anomalous operating condition of a locomotive, each data pack code includes operating conditions of the locomotive at the time of the anomalous operating condition, and wherein each anomaly code is indicative of an anomalous operating condition based on continuous monitoring of a stream of data;
• and
• means for determining at least one of a cause of and a repair for the malfunctioning machine based on the at least one of the at least one fault code and the at least one data code, the at least one fault code and the at least one anomaly code, and the at least one data code and the at least one anomaly code.

At least one program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying at least one program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for analyzing a malfunctioning machine, the method comprising:

• receiving, from the malfunctioning machine comprising a locomotive engine, at least one of at least one fault code and at least one data code, at least one fault code and at least one anomaly code, and at least one data code and at least one anomaly code wherein each fault code is associated with an anomalous operating condition of a locomotive, each data code includes operating conditions of the locomotive at the time of the anomalous operating condition, and wherein each anomaly code is indicative of an anomalous operating condition based on continuous monitoring of a stream of data;
• and
• determining at least one of a cause of and a repair for the malfunctioning machine based on the at least one of the at least one fault code and the at least one data code, the at least one fault code and the at least one anomaly code, and the at least one data code and the at least one anomaly code.
