European railways unveil joint technical strategy
EUROPE: An outline of the technical requirements needed to support 'a successful railway of the future' was published on February 11 by the 'Railway Operating Community', which brings together those European train operators and infrastructure managers who are members of CER, EIM and UIC.
Co-ordinated by UIC, the Rail Technical Strategy Europe is intended to complement the Challenge 2050 vision document prepared by the ROC members in 2013. Although it is 'not a research agenda', it is intended to sit alongside the Shift2Rail research initiative in helping to shape the evolution of Europe's railways.
Challenge 2050 addressed the issues facing Europe's railways from the perspective of stakeholders, passengers, freight shippers and suppliers, with the key challenges grouped under three main pillars: policy, technical and services. RTSE in turn addresses the technical requirements which 'will enable the sector to exploit its opportunities to satisfy customer requirements'.
