Fact Sheet: Velaro D – New ICE 3 (Series 407)
Fact sheet: Velaro D – New ICE 3 (Series 407) Velaro D profile . The Velaro D is the fourth generation of high-speed trains that Siemens has developed on the basis of the Velaro platform. Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) classifies the train as the new Series 407 ICE 3 (predecessors: Series 403 and Series 406 ICE 3). While the Series 403 and 406 ICE 3 were built by a consortium with Bombardier, the Velaro D was fully developed by Siemens. For the first time, the manufacturer is in charge of the official approval process for the trains. In December 2013, Germany’s Federal Railway Authority (EBA) approved the trains’ operation – also in multiple-unit or so-called double-traction mode – on the Deutsche Bahn rail network. Passenger operation started on December 21, 2013. Authorization for operation with uncoupled trains in France was obtained on April 1st, 2015. Open access was permitted on April 14, 2015. Since June 2015 the trains have been travelling to Paris in regular passenger operation. In addition to Germany and France, the Velaro D is also intended for cross-border operation in Belgium. The approval process in this country is still in progress. Technical data of the Velaro D (per train) Maximum operating speed 320 kilometers per hour (alternating current) Length 200 meters Number of cars per train 8 Seating (excl. 16 bistro seats) 444 / 111 / 333 (total / 1st class / 2nd class) Curb weight 454 tons Operating temperature range -25 °C to +45 °C Traction power 8,000 kilowatts (11,000 hp) Velaro platform . Since 2007, trains based on the Velaro platform have operated with high reliability for more than one billion kilometers in China, Russia, Spain and Turkey – equal to roughly 25,000 times around the globe. -

Operational Experiences with Onboard Diagnosis System for High Speed Trains
Operational Experiences with Onboard Diagnosis System for High Speed Trains R. Sunder, A. Kolbasseff, K. Kieninger, A. Röhm, J. Walter Institute for Safety Technology (ISTec) GmbH Forschungsgelände, 85748 Garching, Federal Republic of Germany 1. INTRODUCTION The primary objective of the project “Onboard diagnosis system for high-speed trains” is to guarantee the high availability of InterCity-Express (ICE) trains during the whole lifetime using condition based maintenance procedures. This ensures also a significant improvement of operational safety of railway vehicles. The detailed specification of an InterCity-Express onboard diagnosis system requires therefore the establishment of broad basis of data and knowledge to determine appropriate sensor positions, measuring principles, assessment algorithms and failure-specific features. Condition monitoring algorithms were tested by failure simulations with ICE trailers on the track. A prototype onboard diagnosis system was specified, realised and installed – operational experiences and lessons learned will be presented. 2. SCOPE OF ICE ONBOARD DIAGNOSIS As a subcontractor of Deutsche Bahn AG, ISTec started in 1999 with generic investigations on incipient failure detection methods for high speed trains. One issue of this contract was a certain know-how transfer from diagnosis systems developed for pump and turbines in nuclear technology to InterCity Express vehicles. From the early beginning it was evident, that there were basic differences between pumps and trains concerning the excitation functions: Stationary operating machines normally are forced by random and steady-state excitations, trains in operation are affected by a mixture of non-linear excitations and transient effects like impacts from the track. Furthermore, trains are running with different speeds on different roadways. -

Fernfahrplan 2012 Langfassung
Jürgen Lorenz 17. November 2011 Vorschau auf den Fernfahrplan 2012 Auch das Fahrplanjahr 2012 ist durch Auswirkungen aus Bautätigkeiten geprägt. Für längerfristige Gleiserneuerungen und –umbauten werden Baukorridore (Bk) eingerichtet. Sie führen zu vielen zeitlich befristeten Ersatzmaßnahmen, oftmals mit deutlichen Fahrzeitverlängerungen. Abweichungen sind im Ansatz erwähnt. Die Streckenhöchstgeschwindigkeit von 230 km/h auf dem viergleisigen Abschnitt Olching – Augsburg wird ab dem Fahrplan 2012 genutzt. Zwischen Stelle und Ashausen stehen vier Gleise zur Verfügung. Ab dem 10. Juni 2012 wird auch der Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg International an den Schienenfernverkehr angeschlossen. ICE-Linie 1 Sprinter Köln – Hamburg ICE-Linie 3 Sprinter Berlin – Frankfurt (Main) Auf diesen Linien gibt es keine Veränderungen im Angebot. ICE-Linie 4 Sprinter Hamburg – Darmstadt Die im letzten Fahrplanjahr eingeführte Verlängerung des ICE 1097 an Fr über Darmstadt hinaus bis Saarbrücken wird zurückgenommen. ICE-Linie 10 Bonn – Berlin ICE 841 begann bisher am Mo in Bielefeld. Der Zug wird ab dem Fahrplanwechsel Mo ab Oldenburg (Oldb) Hbf und Di-Fr ab Bremen Hbf gefahren. ICE 557 Sa/ICE 855 Mo-Fr sowie ICE 858 So-Fr entfallen zwischen Trier und Köln Hbf bzw. Koblenz und Trier. Die Verkehrstage bei ICE 947 zwischen Köln und Düsseldorf werden auf Mo-Sa erweitert, bei ICE 957 jedoch auf So reduziert. Bis zum 31. März werden im Rahmen des Winterprogramms mehrere ICE 2- Leistungen durch ICE 1 bzw. ICE-T ersetzt. Dabei handelt es sich um ICE 951/941 Fr+So sowie ICE 944/954, die durch die Baureihe 401 als ICE 1041 Mo-Do+Sa/ICE 1044 von/nach Köln Hbf ergänzt werden. -
Alstom to Supply 12 Avelia Euroduplex Trains to SNCF for the TGV Atlantique Lines
PRESS RELEASE A contract worth over €335 million Alstom to supply 12 Avelia Euroduplex trains to SNCF for the TGV Atlantique lines 31 July 2019 – Alstom will supply 12 Avelia Euroduplex trains to SNCF Mobilités for the sum of €335 million. This order is in addition to the one for 55 trains currently being delivered. The 12 trains will enter service in 2021 and 2022. They will replace older trains, some of which are over 30 years old. A first order for 40 trains had been signed with SNCF in September 20131, and 15 additional options were exercised in 2017. To date, 41 trains have been delivered, with the first ones entering commercial service on 11 December 2016 between Paris and Bordeaux. “I am very happy that SNCF has renewed its trust in us. The feedback from passengers who travel regularly on these very high speed trains is very positive. This order is excellent news for the sites that produce these trains and will, in particular, ensure the workload of La Rochelle and Belfort in 2020 and 2021, before the delivery of the new generation trains ordered in 2018. The production of these Avelia Euroduplex trains will represent employment for 400 people in La Rochelle and 120 people in Belfort,” said Jean-Baptiste Eyméoud, Senior Vice President France at Alstom. The Avelia Euroduplex trains have higher capacity, with 556 seats compared to 509 for previous generations. Alstom has placed the passenger at the heart of the development of this material by proposing a new concept for more comfortable, more ergonomic seats with a high level of equipment (electrical sockets, USB sockets, reading lamp, etc.). -
