1 Managing a Migration Strategy to ensure a Smooth Transition between Systems Implementation of ERTMS on the French network Bruno Crombé SNCF ERTMS Eric LE MOAL RFF ERTMS/ETCS National Project Manager Ref : 07-1C132 UIC ERTMS World Conference

2 French pragmatic approach East European HSL, first system experiences Migration on on the HS and CR networks Corridors C&D, first steps ERTMS on on regional network GSM-R implementation ETCS migration process: economic issues Conclusion UIC ERTMS World Conference

3 French pragmatic approach Pragmatic approach for a rapid start to migration on European routes Corridor 2007 group :: Members: DB, DB, INFRABEL, CFL, CFL, HSL HSL Zuid, Zuid, RFF, RFF, SNCF, SNCF, SNCB SNCB EEIG ERTMS Users Group coordination Technical and and operational harmonisation on on HS HS corridors Corridors C and D Members of of Corridor C: C: INFRABEL, CFL, RFF, SBB Members of of Corridor D: D: ADIF, RFI, RFI, RFF, AZP, MAV EEIG ERTMS Users Group coordination Technical and and operational harmonisation on on CR CR corridors ETCS version as as common reference UIC ERTMS World Conference

4 The French part of the Paris-Frankfurt HS corridor Main characteristics of the East European HSL New New line line length: km km (excluding connections) Connecting lines: km km Three new new passenger stations along the the line line Train design speed: km/h for for geometry --Operating speed: km/h --Capacity: trains/hour Signalling system: two two systems implemented TVM 430-SEI + ETCS Level 2 (Version C ) Contracts Contracts with with ANSALDO/CSEE ANSALDO/CSEE interlockings interlockings 7 RBCs RBCs Eurobalises Eurobalises Double GSM-R coverage (supplier: Nortel) UIC ERTMS World Conference

5 The Paris-Frankfurt high speed corridor ETCS + national systems UIC ERTMS World Conference

6 The French part of the Paris-Frankfurt HS corridor Signalling: the superposition issue The decision was taken by by RFF in in 2000 for dual fitment of of the HSL with TVM 430-SEI and ETCS Level 2 for two reasons: At At that that time, no no ETCS level 2 system was was in in operation in in Europe, and and so so fitting the the line line with with TVM as as well well offered an an answer to to the the technical risk risk at at a reasonable extra cost, At At that that time, there was was no no agreed deployment plan plan for for ERTMS in in France, and and the the cost cost of of equipping existing high speed trains as as a dedicated fleet fleet for for this this HSL HSL was was higher than the the dual dual system extra cost. UIC ERTMS World Conference

7 Validation steps for Paris-Frankfurt Lille Valenciennes 1) Laboratory platform at CEF (Railway Test Centre) HSL North 2) Reduced-scale line tests at the CEF with test train East European HSL phase 1 Paris Strasbourg 3) Full-scale line tests on the Ile de France junction HSL with test train South East HSL 4) Commissioning tests on East European HSL with test train and TGV POS UIC ERTMS World Conference

8 Equipment of TGV (high speed train) fleet Ongoing development of bi-standard ETCS/TVM (ANSALDO/CSEE) offering the following versions: TVM pre-fitted for for ETCS (in (in 2008) for for TGV TGV Duplex and and Thalys ETCS & TVM combined (in (in 2008) for for TGV TGV POS STM TVM (depending on on availability of of RUs RUswilling to to use use it it in in Belgium and/or in in France and/or in in UK) UK) Development managed by by RFF and SNCF (Engineering Team) in in cooperation with the supplier UIC ERTMS World Conference

9 HS fleet migration: SNCF on the move SNCF has started the migration of its fleet of high speed TGV trains: 19 TGV POS for the Paris to Frankfurt // Münich route Complete fleet of 24 Thalys trainsets for HSL ZUID and L4 route from Paris to Brussels and Amsterdam, and for L3 route for Paris to Brussels and Cologne 24 Duplex trainsets ordered with ETCS as basic equipment UIC ERTMS World Conference

10 Strategy for the Conventional Rail network ETCS Level 1 To To deliver interoperability with with full full corridor equipment ETCS Level 2 To To enhance capacity when desirable and and possible ETCS Level 3 // Regional For For regional lines following the the approach adopted by by Banverket (Swedish Infrastructure Manager) UIC ERTMS World Conference

11 Deployment on the HS network East European HSL Pays de Loire HSL Capacity HSL South Europe Atlantic HSL Capacity HSL Rhin-Rhône HSL ETCS (overlay or not with TVM) TVM430 Lyon-Turin HSL Bordeaux-Toulouse HSL Bordeaux Spain HSL Nîmes Montpellier Perpignan-Figueras UIC ERTMS World Conference

12 ETCS on Corridors C and D Luxembourg border - Thionville Belgian border - Longuyon German border - Béning Deployment scenario European funds expected TEN-T : 50% co-financing PARIS Longuyon LYON Sibelin Lérouville Metz Toul Dijon Ambérieu Chambéry Valence Thionville Béning Baudrecourt Nancy MULHOUSE BASEL MODANE STRASBOURG TORINO Avignon Nîmes MONTPELLIER Béziers Fos/Mer MARSEILLE Perpignan Corridors C and D Pilot lines BARCELONA FIGUERAS UIC ERTMS World Conference

13 ETCS for the Conventional Rail Network RFF has chosen ETCS Level 1 to ensure interoperability along European priority corridors Except for new lines, no application of ETCS Level 2 is is planned on CR network because: Without a large majority of of trains equipped with with ETCS Level 2 using a given line, line, the the line line capacity increase achievable with with Level 2 remains virtual, Operating rules for for Level 2 are are an an issue when it it comes to to shutting down the the lineside signals and and the the related cost. Potential line line capacity increases will will not not offset the the extra economic cost. UIC ERTMS World Conference

14 Procurement Strategy for Conventional Rail Open competition to select 2 or 3 suppliers. One pilot lot for each supplier. Definition of operating rules during execution of the pilot lots. Deployment shared between the suppliers depending on quality of the bids. UIC ERTMS World Conference

15 Pending issues to be settled A number of of issues have still to to be be settled in in connection with the the migration process. An An initial analysis conducted jointly by by RFF and SNCF has flagged up up some issues for for both IM IM and RU RU on on conventional lines: Operational rules rules on on a corridor fitted fitted with with both both ETCS ETCS and and a legacy legacy system, ETCS ETCS train train categories to to allow allow operation in in proper proper conditions, Harmonisation of of braking curves curves to to avoid avoid barriers at at borders, Safe Safe handling of of train train data data collection and and data data input input processes on on board. board. These different issues are are poised to to be be managed both through national mechanisms, to to be be Globally Equivalent for for Safety (GAME principle), and and in in a consistent manner along major corridors. (e.g. Corridor C and D working groups) UIC ERTMS World Conference

16 Conventional Rail: On-Board Equipment Ongoing development offering: KVB STM Stand-alone KVB STM pre-fitted for for ETCS paving the the way way for for a bi-standard ETCS & KVB combined Development managed by by ALSTOM, RFF and SNCF UIC ERTMS World Conference

17 ERTMS on the Regional Network Following the Banverket approach RFF has launched an ERTMS regional programme Banverket SRS ERTMS regional review process in in the the framework of of UIC Feasibility study on on selected regional lines in in order to: to: Provide technical and and economical comparisons with with existing signalling systems Define typical deployment and and maintenance costs for for ERTMS Regional, for for use use on on other lines Analyse the the option of of GALILEO positioning facilities Identify a possible pilot line line for for initial trials UIC ERTMS World Conference

20 ETCS Migration Process: Economic Issues The costs and benefits of migration are not evenly shared by IM and RU Balance of the risks and opportunities against timescale Identification of main drivers: capacity increase, productivity, interoperability, Specification stability and upward compatibility required to secure investment cycle life. UIC ERTMS World Conference

21 Conclusions In In a global strategy, Infrastructure Managers and Railway Undertakings need to cooperate in in order to optimise the national migration scenario. Corridors provide an opportunity to enlarge cooperation on a consistent European basis. And don t forget to select the best suppliers! UIC ERTMS World Conference
