INTRODUCTION This document “Technical specifications ETCS – 1” defines the requirements that the detailed design must comply with for construction of the ETCS system, level 1, version 2.3.0d in the section Manole – Burgas. It sets out common technical and functional requirements of the ETCS system, level 1, version 2.3.0d, specified for the designed section. 2. SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The conceptual project “Construction of signaling on railway Plovdiv – Burgas (ETCS level 1, version 2.3.0d)” envisages the construction of new ETCS system, level 1, version 2.3.0d in the section Manole – Burgas. This system aims to allow effective control of train movements in the area, increasing safety and improving the train movement control and reducing the human factor in the control. The scenario includes the following activities: − complete dismantling of road equipment of the JZG-703 system in the section Orizovo station –Stara Zagora station; − dismantling of all balises and LEU of the ALTRACS BDZ system in the section Stara Zagora – Burgas; − supply and installation of new balises and LEU for the entire segment Manole – Burgas − create a new database for ETCS level 1, version 2.3.0d − technical and detailed design; − supply and installation of equipment and cables for new ETCS system, level 1, version 2.3.0d in the section Manole station – Burgas ; − delivery of a tool for loading of LEU and balises; − loading of LEU and balises; − static and dynamic tests of telegrams. Scope of the project includes: − the section from the entry traffic lights at the Manole station, Plovdiv side, to warning traffic lights at the Stara Zagora station, with stations Manole, Belozem, Orizovo, Chirpan, Mihaylovo Kaloyanovets and adjacent interstations; − section from Stara Zagora station to Burgas station. 3. INFORMATION POINTS 3.1. Types of information points used in the project Variable information point will be installed at the main train signals. In case of a decentralized system ETCS (railway junction Plovdiv) it consists of encoder LEU (linear electronic unit), a permanently encoded balise and a variable (controlled) balise. Balises are mounted to the signal 3 in accordance with paragraph 4.1.1.5 of document UNISIG Subset - 040 “Rules for sizing and design.” LEU is mounted near the controlled balise. Usually this distance is determined by the length of the specialized balise cable. At a greater distance between LEU and balise, a junction box will be mounted from which the distance to LEU will be extended by the same specialized balise cable. In Centralized system, requirements for installation of balises are the same as for decentralized but there is no mounted encoders at a close distance to the signal points. At warning signals, variable information point will be mounted or one LEU and one variable balise. The decision will be made by the designer. Infill information points usually consist of a variable balise connected to LEU in the corresponding input (output) signal in a decentralized system or with the corresponding encoder in a centralized system. Balise is usually located at 400 m from the input signal (between the warning and the input signal). At the discretion of the designer and the Contracting Authority such information point can be positioned between the input and output signals of existing roads. Balises of output signals on existing roads will be mounted after the stop sign of passenger trains, when the distance from the stop place of passenger trains to the output signal is large and affects the train movement schedule. Information point at the device for detecting hot boxes is a variable information point, through which a signal for temporary speed limit is given after having received a signal from the device to detect hot boxes. At distances greater than 2000 meters between two linked, consecutive information points, an information point for adjusting the distance will be used. This point consists of a constant balise. Later in the text the term fixed balise will be used. At input/output in a section with ETCS, an additional information point will not be mounted. 4. ETCS LEVEL 1 VERSION 2.3.0d, ROAD EQUIPMENT. REQUIREMENTS 4.1. General requirements The Contractor shall deliver, install, integrate, test and commision the control system of train movements type ERTMS / ETCS level 1 with “infill” function by eurobalises on railway section Manole station – Burgas (according to items 3 and 4 of the conceptual design of the Contracting Authority), subject of this specification. The system must meet the requirements of ERTMS SRS UNISIG, Class 1 version 2.3.0d, defined in Regulation 919/2016 and any subsequent amendments to the TSI subsystem “Control, command and signaling”. To modes of operation of the system, UNISIG Class 1 ERTMS / ETCS SRS, SUBSET - 026-4 “modes and transitions” should be used. 4 The delivered system should include: − Trackside equipment for the entire section described in item 4, from warning sinal of Manole station, Plovdiv side, to Bourgas station including; − Additional road equipment for the introduction of temporary speed restrictions by installing permanent balises – minimum 30; − Supply and installation of a number of onboard equipment for testing needs; − All materials, specialized tools and auxiliary equipment required for the installation and maintenance of the system in accordance with the requirements of this specification; − Supporting documentation for installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the system. Contractor of the detailed design should develop data for road equipment, including topology, accurate number of transmit information points, signal indications for routes profiles of speed and gradient, and to coordinate with the Contracting Authority. The Contractor must make connectivity of the installed system with installed on another project equipment for ETCS in the section Plovdiv – Skutare. Activities on building the ETCS system should be integrated into the detailed work

V Praze dne…………………. ………………………… podpis 2 FOREWORD The author of this thesis was educated in the context of passenger “Taktfahrplan”, but he found too much research in this field, so he got interested in “Takt” for freight railway. European Commission (2011) declares support of sustainable means of transport, including freight railway and intermodal transport. Recent White Paper on European transport policy states “Rail, especially for freight, is sometimes seen as an unattractive mode. But examples in some Member States prove that it can offer quality service. The challenge is to ensure structural change to enable rail to compete effectively and take a significantly greater proportion of medium and long distance freight...”. Further, ambitious commitments of modal shift in future are set. However, most problems of freight railway, mentioned by European Commission (2001) in previous White Paper, remain up to now – such as preference of passenger railway to the detriment of freight railway or idle of freight trains on borders due to lengthy haulage formalities, often waiting for free train path, and partially still necessary change of locomotive.

    CHAPTER III SIGNALS A. General Provisions 3.01. General use of signals. - The signals prescribed in these rules shall be used for controlling the movement of trains in all cases in which exceptions are not allowed by approved special instructions. S.R.3.01 (i) (a) “Aspect of a signal” means the appearance (position of arm or colour of light) of a fixed signal as seen by the Loco Pilot of a train approaching it from the direction (Up or Down) to which it refers. (b) “Indication of a signal” means the information or meaning conveyed by the aspect of a signal. (c) “In rear of a signal” means any position on that portion of the line leading upto the signal, in the direction to which the signal refers to the line. The Loco Pilot of a train approaching the signal is said to be “in rear of the signal”, so long as he has not passed the signal. (d) “In advance of a signal” means any position on that portion of the line beyond the signal, as viewed from the direction in which the signal refers to the line. The Loco Pilot of an approaching train is said to be “in advance of the signal”, after he has passed the signal. This portion of the line is protected by the signal, if it is a Stop signal. 3.02. Kinds of signals. - The signals to be used for controlling the movement of trains shall be- (a) fixed signals, (b) hand signals, (c) detonating signals, and (d) flare signals. S.R.

Railway Gazette, The National Archive at Kew. Reg. Instone. Westinghouse B & S Co. Trevor Moseley 2 Chapter 1 - Historical It seems that railways went through some twenty years of their history before any attempt was made to work signals at a distance from the point they were located, as up to that time each signal was operated from the base of its own post. Such an arrangement required two men at junctions to constantly cross the lines to operate signals. It appears that one young points-man, Robert Skelton, employed at Hawick Junction, Portobello in Scotland came up with the idea in 1846 to counterweight the wire for working signals from a distance and brought it to the notice of the railway. Hence the name ‘distant’ signal. Experience quickly proved the greater safety and economy of his method that made it possible to concentrate point and signal movements from one central spot instead of working all of them as individual units that soon became general. In 1849 Skelton was awarded a silver medal by the Royal Scottish Society of Arts to commemorate his invention.
