Abstract

The realization of the interoperability between the partners of an intermodal transportation chain as well as inside a single transportation mode heavily influences the quality of the whole transportation process. The railway can only be a competitive partner of the intermodal transportation chain, if the railway network is equipped by homogeneous infrastructure through several countries. Train Control Systems play here an important role. The main goal of this paper is to introduce the efforts for a unified European Train Control System (ETCS) and to present the results achieved up to now.
