It is made up of all the train-borne, trackside and lineside equipment necessary for supervising and controlling, in real-time, train operation according to the traffic conditions based on the appropriate Level of Application. 2017 1 TRASPORT MARKET STUDY RAIL FREIGHT CORRIDOR ORIENT/ EAST- MED European Train Control System This component of ERTMS guarantees a common standard that enables trains to cross national borders and enhances safety. It is a signalling and ETCS control system designed to replace the several incompatible safety systems currently used by European railways. As a subset of ERTMS, it provides a level of protection against overspeed and overrun depending upon the capability of the line side infrastructure.
