Innovation, Technology & Strategy for Asia Pacific's Rail Industry CELEBRATING 20 YEARS Innovation, technology & strategy for Asia Pacific’s rail industry DATES VENUE 20-21 Hong Kong Convention & March 2018 Exhibition Centre www.terrapinn.com/aprail WITH 40,000+ KILOMETRES OF RAIL PROJECTS EITHER PLANNED OR UNDER CONSTRUCTION, ASIA PACIFIC IS THE MOST EXCITING RAIL MARKET IN THE WORLD. BUT WHILST IT IS A LAND OF OPPORTUNITY, FOR THOSE PROJECTS ALREADY OPERATING, THERE ARE ALSO CHALLENGES. Our Story New technology integration continues to play a vital role in ensuring efficient operation management. Ageing infrastructure and rolling stock needs to be upgraded or replaced, putting a clearly defined and well-executed asset management strategy firmly on the agenda of all major operators. Besides that, operators still face tough high-speed construction challenges, tough operational efficiency targets and demanding timelines for new construction projects. So what better way to overcome these challenges and to ensure you’re at the top of your game than two days of knowledge sharing and networking with your peers? Welcome to Asia Pacific Rail, bringing Asia Pacific’s rail community together for 20 years. Over the last 20 years, Asia Pacific Rail has brought together more than 20,000 rail leaders from across the globe for the most exclusive and influential railway gathering in the region. 2017 was our biggest event ever, with 4 premium tracks of content, a busy exhibition and 1,500+ attendees. For our 20th anniversary edition in 2018, we’re going even bigger, bringing you more rail operators, more content, more exhibitors, more networking, and above all, more opportunities for you to do business. With 5 tracks of premium content covering metro projects, rolling stock, rail freight, signalling & communications, passenger experience, safety, asset management, track & infrastructure, revenue & ticketing, mainline projects, financing & funding and more, the 2018 premium conference will offer more opportunities than ever before to hear from the leading operators, authorities and solution providers in the region. Visionary keynotes will lay the foundations for two days of intensive learning, discussion and networking. Leading C-Level executives will share case studies from across the world, ensuring you can learn from the best of the best. Once you’ve heard from them, you can spend time debating with them during the small-group roundtable sessions, allowing you to foster relationships and make new business contacts. Plus we’ve got a busy exhibition floor, packed full of networking opportunities, product demonstrations and more. Whether you’re a railway operator, railway authority or a solution provider to the global railway industry, you need to join us as we lay the foundations for Asia’s rail future.

  • Functional Allocation and Door Control of ATO for the Korean Radio-Based Train Control System
    Recent Advances in Circuits, Systems and Automatic Control Functional Allocation and Door Control of ATO for the Korean Radio-based Train Control System MIN-SOO KIM, YONG-KI YOON, SEH-CHAN OH and YONG-KYU KIM Radio-based Train Control Research Team, Korea Railroad Research Institute 360-1 Woram-dong, Uiwang-si, Gyeonggi-do, 437-757, KOREA [email protected] http://www.krri.re.kr Abstract: - The Communication Based Train Control (CBTC) performs train position report immediately and movement authority transmission through wireless communications between a wayside control center and on- board vehicle computers. And it has effect of increasing the railway capacity by allowing the high-density train control through a high capacity of information transmission between the on-board and the wayside. Also, it reduces the maintenance cost because it does not use the existing track circuits. The Automatic Train Protection (ATP)/ Automatic Train Operation (ATO) is fundamental train control system for driverless operation in urban rail and metro rail, and it is important role in the communications based train control system. Especially, the ATO acts as a key role for automatic operation in urban rail with short distance between stations stopping and frequently stops. This paper describes the door control including platform screen door (PSD) and functional allocation of ATO which is responsible for the automatic operation and the door control as a subsystem of the Korean Radio-based Train Control System (KRTCS). Key-Words: - Korean Radio-based Train Control System, Automatic Train Operation, Door Control, Automatic Train Protection 1 Introduction offers safety and conveniences of passengers Railway systems are group of individuals with through the safe operations such as an accurate stop vehicles, tracks and signals, and therefore the on the station, train door/Platform Screen Door effective interaction among the subsystems is a core (PSD) controlling, and so on.

  • Installation of Platform Screen Doors for the MTR Airport Express Line and Tung Chung Line in Hong Kong
    Together we engineer a better Asia Installation of Platform Screen Doors for the MTR Airport Express Line and Tung Chung Line in Hong Kong Developer MTR Corporation JEC Scope Installation of platform screen doors at the platforms of Airport Express Line & Tung Chung Line Location Hong Kong Project Completion Date 1998 Jardine Engineering Corporation (JEC) installed Hong Kong's first platform screen doors on a number of stations for the Mass Transit Railway (MTR). This was one of the first time this equipment had been installed the region. JEC installed the platform screen doors of over 4km linear length at 10 stations for the Airport Express and the Tung Chung Lines: a) Airport Express Line: Airport, Tsing Yi, Kowloon and Hong Kong Stations b) Tung Chung Line: Tung Chung, Tsing Yi, Lai King, Olympic, Kowloon and Hong Kong Stations Purpose of Screen Doors There are many advantages to installing platform screen doors. The platform-long screen doors also provide a physical separation between the tracks and platform to enhance passengers’ safety. It also reduces noise created when a train is approaching the platform. The screen doors significantly improve the station environment by preventing the escape of air- conditioned air. This reduces the loading to the railway's environmental control system and in turn reduces energy consumption. The introduction of screen doors to the Airport Express and Tung Chung Lines was a success and the technology has been extended to a large number of MTR stations in Hong Kong. The technology provides a better transportation environment for MTR passengers. Jardine Engineering Corporation www.jec.com T011-0510H.

  • Rating Action: Moody's Affirms Wuhan Metro's A3 Rating; Outlook Stable
    Rating Action: Moody's affirms Wuhan Metro's A3 rating; outlook stable 07 Apr 2020 Hong Kong, April 07, 2020 -- Moody's Investors Service has affirmed Wuhan Metro Group Co., Ltd.'s A3 issuer rating and senior unsecured rating, as well as its (P)A3 senior unsecured medium-term note rating. At the same time, Moody's has maintained the stable outlook on the ratings. RATINGS RATIONALE "The affirmation reflects our assessment that Wuhan Metro's credit profile will continue to be supported by the strong recurring funding support from the government, despite service suspensions and reduced ridership due to the coronavirus outbreak in 2020," says Ada Li, a Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer. Wuhan Metro's A3 issuer rating primarily combines (1) its ba2 Baseline Credit Assessment (BCA); and (2) Moody's assessment of a very high likelihood of support from, and a high level of dependence on, the Wuhan government and ultimately the Government of China (A1 stable), when needed, which provides a five-notch uplift to its final rating. This assessment of "Very High" support is underpinned by (1) the company's primary role of developing the metro system in Wuhan city, which is not commercially viable but is nationally important (public policy); (2) its controlling ownership by the Wuhan and central governments; and (3) the track record of very strong government support for the company. Moody's also considers that there is a "High" dependence level on the central government, reflecting that Wuhan Metro and the central government are exposed to common political and economic event risks.
