Deutsche Bahn, Siemens Mobility, and other partners are testing fully automated train operation
The Federal
Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection is supporting the project
and Parliamentary State Secretary Michael Kellner presented a funding notice
for approximately 42.6 million euros today in Berlin.
Andre
Rodenbeck, CEO Rail Infrastructure at Siemens Mobility, stated: "For the
first time in Germany, we are testing fully automated, driverless operations
based on ETCS in regional traffic. That's why we are proud to be part of the
'Automated Train' research and development project. We will equip one of our
Mireo Smart regional trains with the latest GoA4 technology for train
preparation and deployment. This allows us to continue our research and
development activities in the field of driverless trains and obstacle detection
in rail transportation. We would like to thank the Federal Ministry for
Economic Affairs and Climate Protection for supporting this project."
