2 What is a tram-train? Karlsruhe

3 What is a tram-train? Kassel

4 What is a tram-train? Chemnitz

5 From technical point of view a tram-train project is one of the most difficult and complicated. In this case we are not building an extension, rather a new operation in uncertain legal environment. There are several in Europe, however there is no two, that are identical. E.g. only within Kassel there are three separate tram-train operations with different parameters.

6 TRAM-TRAIN SYSTEMS IN EUROPE Germany: Karlsruhe, Saarbrücken, Chemnitz, Zwickau, Nordhausen, Kassel France: Mulhouse, Nantes*, Párizs*, Lyon* Spain: Alicante, Cádíz Holland: Randstadtrail (Hague) Egyesült Királyság: Sheffield (planned) Olaszország: Sassari, Lanciano (planned) Dánia: Århus (planned) diesel / full electric, * - not in connection with local tram network

7 HUNGARIAN HISTORICAL EXAMPLES Budapest Suburban Rail s connecting tram operations (Budafok, Pesterzsébet, Csepel, Rákosszentmihály, until 1978) Nyíregyháza narrow-gauge railway (until 1969) Alföldi Első Gazdasági Vasút city section: Békéscsaba, Orosháza (until 1971)

8 Routes S1, S11, S2 Karlsruhe Kassel Chemnitz S31, S32, S4, S41, S42, S5, S51, S52, S6, S7, S71, S8, S81, S9 4, 5, 7 RT4 RT1, Rt5 C11 C13, C14, C15 Operation 750 V = 750 V = / 16 kv ~ 600 V = 600 V = / diesel 600 V = / 16 kv ~ 600 V = 600 V = / diesel Doors one side both sides one side* both sides both sides Vehicle width 2650 mm 2400 mm 2650 mm / 2400 mm at platform 2650 mm Low floor & platform level (accessibility) rail level+55 cm different from the city network (34 cm)! rail level + 30 cm rail level +30 cm Vehicle length 80 m 30(-60*) m 40 m (suburban: 80 m) 40 m 30/55 cm (variable)

9 Route of Szeged- Hódmezővásárhely tram-train Hódmezővásárhely Partial double tracks Algyő Partial double tracks Szeged (alongside tram route 1)

10 Route in Hódmezővásárhely

11 New track in Szeged

12 Planned schedule of the tram-train operation Peak hours every 20 minutes Morning peak hours from HMV every 10 minutes (between 6:30-7:10) Daytime every 30 minutes Late evening and early morning every 60 minutes The train frequency between Szeged & Békéscsaba remain every hour

19 Planned catenary

20 Planned catenary

21 VETRA Four main function: Signalisation in Hódmezővásárhely single track tram section (with automatic switch setting) MÁV central signalisation log in (at the two connection point) Automatization of raising and sinking the current collector, switching the vehicle from tram to train Extension of the railway signalisation at leaving the track

22 Szeged, single tram track signalisation through MÁV system

23 Current converter in Hódmezővásárhely

24 Current converter in Hódmezővásárhely Double feeding Double transformators Two sections 2P+2N Aluminum cables

25 PREPARATION OF THE PROJECT 2007: pre-feasibility study 2012: detailed feasibility study : Authorization plans and review of detailed feasibility study Environmental authorization in Autumn Authorization by the Railway Authority in Autumn : Auxilliary Authorization plans and review of detailed feasibility study (reconstruction of railway line 135) Planned execution: 2017 (?), end: until 2020 (?) Planned operators: MÁV & MÁV-Start (Hungarian State Rwy.)

26 PROJEKT EXECUTION For the start first the planned parameters of the tram-train vehicle was needed to be specified. By May with the leadership of the National Transport Authority there was a concept.

27 PROJEKT EXECUTION In 2015 state owned MÁV Zrt. became the operator for the new tram section in Hódmezővásárhely as well as MÁV remained the operator of the line 135; and MÁV-START started the procurement for the vehicle For 8(+4 optional) vehicle In Szeged SZKT remained the operator (Municipality owned).

28 PROJEKT EXECUTION Economical modelling was made for determining a new system for track usage fee for tram-train, as well as to determine the ownership of the parts, actualization of CBA. Preliminary negotiations are between National Development Ministry (who is ordering the suburban service in Hungary), MÁV, SZKT, Municipality of Szeged and Hódmezővásárhely about the local traffic operations and tariff system.

29 Operator: MÁV-Start Modern tram-train vehicle max. length: 40 m width: 2,65/2,4 m (narrow at platform level) min. capacity: 90 seats max. velocity: 50/100 km/h operation: tram: 600 V comfort: entry level: railway: diesel heating and air condition 30/55 cm

30 PROJEKT EXECUTION The procurement obtained authorization from Transport Authority in Winner is Stadler Vossloh (Valencia). Price: 6,4 M Euro / vehicle (w/o toilet)

31 PROJEKT EXECUTION The new tram-train wheel profile is also ready.

32 IN FRONT OF THE PROJECT EXECUTION Financing: Not yet clarified (two major changes so far) Operation: Tariff system (currently in negotiation between MÁV- START, DAKK, SZKT, Municipality of Szeged, Municipality of HMV, National Development Ministry) Modifying the existing interurban bus routes in order to change to tram-train; MÁV tram-track operation practice (SZKT MÁV cooperation); MÁV-START tram operation practice; Passenger Information Systems integration Vehicle purchase: Contract get in effect; Authoriation Delivery Auxilliary devices (washing, mill, cranes, etc.)

33 IN FRONT OF THE PROJECT EXECUTION Track planning and authorization: Authorization of the reconstruction of line 135 and Szeged depot; Auxilliary utility planning Common operation rules (MÁV, MÁV-START, SZKT) Tram-train specific signalling Execution: Utility replacement (? 2017) Construction of the tram sections (? ) Reconstruction of line 135 (? ) Depot (? ) Vehicles (? )
