Abstract :
On board Train Control and Monitoring Systems (TCMS) share with Traction Systems a major role in the design of modern trains. Train operators are now asking for trains that are capable of more than just a simple passenger journey from one location to another. Modern “intelligent” Train Control and Monitoring Systems play a vital role in the provision of reliable, adaptable and flexible trains necessary to provide train services that meet the expectations of today´s railway customers.
