ICE 2 REDESIGN COMPLETED The modernization of all 44 ICE 2 trains has been completed. The interiors have been completely dismantled, repaired and reas- sembled, partly with new components. Improvements include more loading space, new information screens, and the renovation of restaurant and bistro cars and the small children compartment. MORE TALENT 2 TRAINS IN SERVICE The new Talent 2 electric multiple units (EMUs) feature greater comfort for passengers and an excellent level of energy efficiency, including a system for energy recovery. Of the almost 300 vehicles ordered, more than 260 have been delivered so far. LoGISTICS CENTER OPENED IN JAPAN We have opened in Japan our largest logistics center to date. The center is located in Baraki, only 25 kilometers from the center of Tokyo.

Für die 120.000 Einwohner von Göttingen sind mehr als zwei ICE-Stopps pro Stunde und Richtung aber nicht erforderlich. Daher baut der VD-T 20 km weiter nördlich den Almstedt Bahnhof Northeim (30.000 Einwohner) so aus, dass die „weiße Flotte“ auch dort halten kann. Der Fahrplan der ICE-Linie 4 ist so günstig, dass sich deren Züge zur Minute 00 in Northeim begegnen und optimale Anschlüsse ins Umland bieten.

  • Development of a Dynamic Driving Simulation Model for Automated Design of Regional Trains' Hybrid Propulsion Architecture
    Development of a dynamic driving simulation model for automated design of regional trains’ hybrid propulsion architecture Guerster, Markus1; Moser, Christian2; Moser, Korbinian2; Mueller, Florian2; Muehlbauer, Christoph2; Brueckmann, André2; Grimm, Rainer2 1Massachussetts Institute of Technology, 33-409, 77 Massachusetts Avenue, 02139 Cambridge, MA, USA, [email protected] 2 in-tech, Parkring 2, Garching/Munich, Germany, {[email protected]} Abstract. With this paper, we describe the driving dynamic model (DDM) as a key component of the collaborative research project TORPA (Toolbox for Optimal Railway Propulsion Architectures). As part of this project, we aim to find the optimal propulsion architecture for any given track. The newly developed DDM is key to provide a set of constraints for the optimization. This is achieved by a modular design approach, allowing the DDM to be specified for all kind of propulsion systems, consisting of electrical, combustion, and/or fuel cell engines as well as battery, supercapacitor, and/or flywheel energy storage options. In this paper, we first provide a literature background on existing DDMs. Second, we describe the overall methodology and optimization approach. The developed DDM and train mass models are shown after. We quickly introduce the track generation and finally, some preliminary results are shown, and the paper is concluded.
