• Rome-Naples December 2005 − the first level 2 line went into operation

• A vision of the Digital Railway of the future − No signals − Radio communication − An interoperable system − Safety − Availability

Implemented with Alstom’s ATLAS 200 solution

• The first high density line − 2006 Mattesten-Rothrist in Switzerland,

• The first freight line − 2007 Betuweroute in The Netherlands

• The first cross border operation − 2009 Belgium-Netherlands, Belgium-Germany

• Now − 18,000 km of tracks contracted, − 5092 trainsets of 107 different types, − 29 infrastructure and 71 on-board projects in 23 countries

Implemented with Alstom’s ATLAS 200 solution

• First implementations : − High Speed lines and Corridors − Often new lines

• But now the challenge is the migration of

National Networks

• National networks have more varied needs in terms of : − Network configurations − Evolving traffic − Functional requirements

Example in the lines that approach cities : − From : Low density regional line − To : Branch of a suburban line − To : Central section in city center So traffic densities can increase over a short distance :

from one train per hour

to 30 trains per hour .

And these needs evolve as city and inter-city links change

Today

ETCS Kernel

Latest version of the ERTMS standard is “Baseline 3”

Supports evolution of GSM-R Allows add-ons and added-value options,

such as : • Automatic Train Operation • Moving Block

ERTMS Baseline 3 can address varied Network needs

GSM-R

Train driving is also an issue :

− National networks have more complex driving conditions • Being on time through junctions to avoid disruption • Being on time at station stops for intermodal connections

− Need is also to drive with maximize energy saving

Driving gains are now being quantified

Sustainability Automation

Start To Level 2 To Level 3

Legacy system with

Line side signals

Level 2 with backup legacy system

Level 3 in low density isolated line

Level 2 – no signals Level 3 with some degraded

mode train detection

Level 2 with virtual Sub-blocks (L3) and/or ATO

Level 3 with some degraded mode train detection and

ATO
