Long trains with distributed power

Start: 2018-01-1

End: 2019-12-31

Project code: 2018/RSF/573

Project director: Marc ANTONI

Project manager: Sophie SERODON

Problem to solve:

  • Implementation of freight cross-border traffic exploiting new technologies such as remote control
  • Increase and optimisation of tonnage/length of freight trains
    Added values:
  • Additional development of the TrainDy software
  • Follow-up, practical implementation and adaptation of the statistical methodology of the UIC421 project for remote controlled trains
  • Validation of TrainDy results with tests carried out in the Shift2Rail project
