1 TAIWAN HIGH SPEED RAIL

2 THSRC IN A FEW DATES 1992:In junethe policegouvernmentapproves the route 1995:In May thr legislativ l yuan voted at the realisation on model B.O.T (Built,Operate,Transfer) 1997:In december THSRC Cconsortium formed edby continental engineering,teco,pacific electric Wire and cable,evergreen and Fubon win the contract

3 THRSC IN FEW DATES 1998:In may THSRC is formally etablished;in july the part Department of transport action and communication i signed an agreement transferring to THSRC rights of operation for 50 years 2000:In december,the engineering works are completed,the first cars arrive from jp japan 2005:In January,the first technical trials take place

4 2006:In april,the line passes a series of stringent inspections successfully 2007:In 5 January,the commercial commissioning i i isperformed The Staff for the revenue operation

5 TAIWAN HIGH SPEED RAIL The High speed line of taiwan is in service along the west coast of taiwan. Spanning 345 kms of Ti Taipei iin Kaoshiung,she h came into service on january The construction of the built cost 15 Billion US Dollars

6 TAIPEI 345 KMS KAOHSIUNG

7 ROLLING STOCK THSRC are based on japenese technology of the Shinkensen.They are built by the japenese company KAWASAKI HEAVY INDUSTRIES up to 300 km/h they can theoretically connect taipei to Kaoshiung in 90 minutes against 4h50 for trains travelling on the traditional network Even if the actuel duration of the journey is approximatly 2 hours with stops at various stations on the line

8 CLASSIC NETWORK

9 HISTORY A high speed train project is proposed at the beginning i of the 1990s first the eurotrain project a construction between Alstom (TGV) and Siemens (ICE) is chosen. Thedisaster of ESCHEDE in Germany where an ICE almost completly ripped from a broken wheel revealsa fil failure of the german train design

10 ESCHEDE DERAILMENT June the train breaks on a pile of bridge killing 101 and a hundred injured (287 people in the trainset) this is the worst accident of a train at high speed in the world

11 With its many mountains,its earthquakes and itstyphoons typhoons Taiwan presents conditions near those of the japan.this is one of the reasons for wich ihthey have chosen the Shinkensen from it european competitor 26 AVRIL 2010

12 HISTORY But it is indeed for a financial reasons that the project is abandoned in favour of the Shinkensen japenese. The case concludes by compensation of 65 millions US Dollars for the European consortium

13 Construction starts in 2000 and the first trials in 2005The 2005.The first stations opened their doors in 2007 and the new train between in service time is indiscutable it ismuch less polluting that car he helped to mitigate the domestic air traffic and to reduce road traffic KAOSHIUNG STATION

14 POLLUTION!!!!

15 In general,the trains on the line are composed of a dozen cars.one afor class affairs and 11 of economic class that can carry up to 989 passengers.each car is equiped withluggagecompartments and accessible to the disabled people

25 The underground station has two side platforms. The Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation signed contracts with both China Airlines and EVA Air for preferential services at this station for the two airlines' outbound passengers. Twenty two hectares of land around the station are slated dfor commercial iland manufacturing development, with the goal of developing the area into an international commercial city TAOYUAN STATION

31 IF the colaboration with the japan who provided the equipment is know,that with the France is less.dozens experience train drivers and SNCF experts that since 2005 frame of taiwanese driver training,driving simulator that they have also helped develop

32 ON BOARD FRENCH The french also had a important role in the drafting and implementation of safety procedures,as well as in the training of train controllers

33 PREVENTION The THSRC engages in frequent controls the infrastructure to prevent technicals issues that could be done day because for example,instability of soils or from a lack strenght of the pillars that support the partly elevated line

34 June /3/2007 is a date which Chen_Feng HSIUNG will be remembered,that day it became the 5 millionth passenger since it comissionning january 5

35 More than 90 % of nearly 23 millions taiwanese people inhabit the western plain of the island,which extends from North to south for about 400 kms.these items,we realise of course that he train is the way to the more efficient transport,road and the aircraft
