Very applicable.
However remember that this module is about the APPLICATION of System Engineering Prnciples to the railway domain; hence I imagine that knowlege of this material is only part of what you'd need. Someone with significant experience of undertaking a variety of tasks relevant to different lifecycle phases may well find this theoretical knowledge all they need to complement their experience but others with a more restricted perspective would also need to broaden their understanding by reading more domain related literature, attending talks, engaging in study group activities etc.

A quick search of INCOSE Sytems Engineering Handbook and SYSTEMS ENGINEERING PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE 2nd Edition easy to fine and download.
How applicable to the module?
