Siemens Mobility to equip the low-emission
high-performance maintenance fleet of ÖBB with ETCS Level 2
ÖBB is investing in a new maintenance fleet with 50
low-emission high-performance maintenance vehicles, including 6 cab cars. The Austrian
vehicle manufacturer Plasser & Theurer has been awarded to modernize the
ÖBB fleet and selected Siemens Mobility as trusted ETCS onboard unit partner to
equip the fleet with the latest European train control system (ETCS). The
Trainguard ETCS Level 2 solution that it deployed to ÖBB is based on the latest
Baseline 3 Release 2 standard. To ensure an economical transition to ETCS a
unified cabinet design with standardized interfaces is applied. The new
maintenance fleet is intended to operate throughout the ÖBB network and
cross-border to Germany. To operate in Germany the vehicles will additionally
be equipped with the Siemens PZB solution Trainguard Basic Indusi (TGB-I). TGB-I
with ETCS is a smart combination for operation on both existing and ETCS lines
thanks to proven and harmonized interfaces. By end of 2023 the first vehicles
will operate on the new high-speed Koralmbahn. The contract includes the option
to equip additional 46 high performance maintenance vehicles.
