It has been established that a necessary condition for maintaining the competitiveness and sustainable development of the railway industry is the introduction of innovative technologies, such as intelligent diagnostics. The work has developed a conceptual model of an intelligent diagnostic system that integrates data from diverse sources, such as on-board sensors, external monitoring systems and repair databases. This allows for the formation of a comprehensive and comprehensive picture of the technical condition of the wagon at any time. The developed mathematical models and algorithms based on machine learning, in particular deep neural networks, have demonstrated high accuracy in detecting hidden defects and predicting their development. These algorithms are able to independently learn on large data sets, adapt to new conditions and identify anomalies that cannot be detected using traditional methods. The practical value of the results lies in the creation of a software prototype that implements the functions of intelligent diagnostics, which can be implemented at railway enterprises. This software provides automated monitoring, data visualization and forecasting of maintenance needs. The practical implementation of the developed solutions in the form of a software prototype demonstrates the possibility of automating diagnostic processes and transitioning to predictive maintenance. The implementation of such systems will allow optimizing repair schedules, significantly reducing operating costs and increasing the efficiency of rolling stock use. The results obtained can be used for the further development of monitoring and control systems in railway transport. This research is an important step towards creating "smart" railways, where safety and efficiency are ensured by integrating advanced information technologies. The results can serve as the basis for developing industry standards and recommendations for the application of intelligent diagnostic systems in railway transport in Ukraine. The proposed intelligent diagnostic system allows for automating the assessment of the technical condition of railway cars, reducing costs and increasing safety.
