Signalling on the High-Speed Railway Amsterdam–Antwerp
Computers in Railways XI 243 Towards interoperability on Northwest European railway corridors: signalling on the high-speed railway Amsterdam–Antwerp J. H. Baggen, J. M. Vleugel & J. A. A. M. Stoop Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Abstract The high-speed railway Amsterdam (The Netherlands)–Antwerp (Belgium) is nearly completed. As part of a TEN-T priority project it will connect to major metropolitan areas in Northwest Europe. In many (European) countries, high-speed railways have been built. So, at first sight, the development of this particular high-speed railway should be relatively straightforward. But the situation seems to be more complicated. To run international services full interoperability is required. However, there turned out to be compatibility problems that are mainly caused by the way decision making has taken place, in particular with respect to the choice and implementation of ERTMS, the new European railway signalling system. In this paper major technical and institutional choices, as well as the choice of system borders that have all been made by decision makers involved in the development of the high-speed railway Amsterdam–Antwerp, will be analyzed. This will make it possible to draw some lessons that might be used for future railway projects in Europe and other parts of the world. Keywords: high-speed railway, interoperability, signalling, metropolitan areas. 1 Introduction Two major new railway projects were initiated in the past decade in The Netherlands, the Betuweroute dedicated freight railway between Rotterdam seaport and the Dutch-German border and the high-speed railway between Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and the Dutch-Belgian border to Antwerp (Belgium). -

We are also stakeholder member of the TLB and take minutes Overview of Rail Fares System -- which I understand is a subject of interest RAIL FARES – the structure and charges is often a “hot” topic. The former Rail Consultative Committees were not allowed to consider issues relating to fares. Some may ask are FARES FAIR? OR are the fares VALUE FOR MONEY for the service being offered? OR ask whether the fares structure, pricing policy is suited to local economic conditions, suited to local wage levels or flexible or adaptable enough to change in a rapidly changing economy and its changing transport needs We now face the challenges, threats and opportunities thrown up by the changes wrought to national and local working patterns and the national and local economy by the COVID PANDEMIC, BREXIT and creation of the FREEPORT area around the Port of Harwich, major housing development, including a garden village community and rediscovery of the joys of holidaying in the UK. The sunshine coast has never been so popular!! First a quick reprise of how we got to the present with UK RAIL FARES. -

FEDECRAIL – PRESIDENT’S REPORT – 27.06.2017 Following the election of Jaap Nieweg to the Council at the AGM in May, it is intended that he should take over the Presidency from me at the conclusion of our Council meeting on 1st July, as I explained at the meeting in Antwerp. Therefore this will be the last President’s Report filed by me. I intend to remain on the Council until our next AGM in Scotland next April. It was during the celebration of 150 years of Nederlands Spoorwegen in 1989 that the idea of establishing a pan-European Federation of museum and tourist railways was first mooted, so it is fitting that my successor should be a Dutchman. Several years followed with meetings of a founding group set up at a conference held in Hameln in Germany in 1991. FEDECRAIL was finally established with its present constitution in1994 when the King of the Belgians signed the appropriate decree. -
