Division 4.2 ROLLING STOCK SUBSYSTEM INTERFACES

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

As far as technical compatibility is concerned, these are the interfaces of the rolling stock subsystem with the other subsystems:

  • the design of the fixed formation trainset

  • driver vigilance device

  • the electrification system

  • on-board train control equipment

  • platform height

  • the door controls

  • emergency exits

  • emergency couplers

  • wheel/rail contact

  • hot-box detection

  • alarm signal

  • pressure wave effects

  • effect of crosswinds

  • brakes independent of adhesion

  • flange lubrication

  • coefficient of flexibility.

The interfaces are defined in the following list in order to ensure the development of a consistent trans-European network.

  1. 4.2.1Design of the fixed formation trainset
  2. 4.2.2Driver's vigilance device
