  2. RUS EU-RUS Asia-EU * EU The market and modal split situation indicates potential for Eurasian rail freight traffic growth Rail Freight modal split * 1% of maritime traffic Asia - Europe Source (graphics): wikipedia Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  3. Most relevant European/Asian rail (freight) corridors with gauge changeover • Substitution of maritime container transport Asia – Europe • Europe – Russia (e. g. Pan-European Corridors 2, 3, 5) • In Spain, Spain – France, Finland – Baltic 2 3 5 Source (graphics): wikipedia Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  4. All elements of Euraisan rail transport products need innovative solutions for meeting market requirements • Market models, freight revenues sharing,custom formalities, harmonisedbill of lading,.. • Production / operation, terminalprocesses, rolling stock efficiency,… • Gauge changeover technologies, wheelsets, fixed installations, bi-system wagon compatibility,… Integrated innovation requiredfor marketsuccess One optimisedelement is not sufficient! CIM / SGMS focus of this presentation Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  5. Pros and cons of gauge changeover technologies Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  6. State of the art of automatic gauge changeover technologies Automatic gauge changer technologies evolution TCRS1 Allows the pass of TALGO and CAF Technologies by means of two reclining platforms. To move the platforms, a complex hydraulic system is needed. Appropriate for places with space restrictions.

  7. State of the art of automatic gauge changeover technologies Automatic gauge changer technologies evolution TCRS2 Allows the pass of TALGO and CAF Technologies by means of two horizontally moving platforms. Easy and reliable movement. Hydraulic System Optimization. More economic installation.

  8. State of the art of automatic gauge changeover technologies Automatic gauge changer technologies evolution TCRS3“TALGO-CAF GAUGE CHANGER” Single Platform, two positions “TALGO-CAF GAUGE CHANGER” SECTION WITH TALGO POSITION “TALGO-CAF GAUGE CHANGER” SECTION WITH CAF POSITION Source: Ruth de San Dámaso Martín, ADIF Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  9. State of the art of automatic gauge changeover technologies Freight wagon example: TSP system SUW2000(“ANDRZEJ”, S.A., Zawadzkie, Poland) Both for SUW2000 and DB Rafil V systems. Gauge change with fully loaded wagons ZNTK Poznan (test) Mockawa (Lithuania) Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  10. State of the art of automatic gauge changeover technologies Automatic gauge changer technologies evolution TCRS4“UNICHANGER” Allows the pass of CAF, Talgo, Rafil-DB and SUW2000 technologies with one unique platform. Includes improvements of TCRS3 prototype. ADIF intends development. Commutation between different technologies is performed in seconds. Length to be increased to adapt to RAFIL and PKP technologies.

  11. Technology challenges for EU-Russian rail freight market growth • Compatible (or one) automatic gauge changeover system • Reliable systems (wheelsets and fixed installations), especially under winter conditions • Reduced costs for automatic gauge changeover system • Compatibilty update for UIC 430-4 / OSShD 516 for interoperable freight wagons and bogies („UIC / OSShD“ towards „TSI / OSShD“) • Complement ERA WP 1520 activities (considering non EU-countries requirements) (UIC feasibility study on automatic gauge changeover systems will point oute. g. economic boundary conditions and deliver tools) Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011

  12. Priorities and integrated innovation for a focused market approach • Update TSI/OSShD requirements for wagons (UIC/OSShD working group!) • Develop (one standard or compatible) system for reliable automatic (wheelset) gauge changeover at moderate costs and interoperable TSI/OSShD wagons for 1. dangerous goods / tank wagons2. wagons for goods with complicate reloading • Solve market/custom and operational problems in parallel. Technology innovation is only one part of the success! Integrated innovation Integrated Innovation for Eurasian market growth / TS Forum, Moscow / 23 March 2011
