Locomotives Interoperability

Intelligent Locomotives can be remotely controlled according to standard specifications, achieving various levels of interoperability, which is a basic requirement for border crossing rail traffic. TrainCom will focus on loco compatibility at the command and control level, via the Train Bus and according to existing specifications, so contributing in harmonising interfaces related to a specific functionality (traction remote control).

The application will be validated in at least two test sites, using vehicles from different manufacturers. The solution will try to meet railways expectations in terms of reduction of stop time, lower probability of delays and vehicle usage efficiency.
