FAQ
Q ETCS Level 1/2/3?
A
L1: track circuits + Eurobalises, existing lines. L2: GSM-R radio + central control, EU new-build standard. L3: moving block, no fixed signals, future direction. Siemens and Alstom are ETCS main suppliers.
Q High-speed vs intercity?
A
300+ km/h high-speed: Siemens Velaro (ICE), Alstom AGV, CRRC CR400. 200-250 km/h intercity: Stadler FLIRT, Siemens Desiro. Wheel-rail vs maglev (only Japan Chuo Shinkansen + Shanghai Maglev).
Q Chinese rail export to Germany?
A
CRRC has won orders in Poland, Czechia and Hungary. Main-line entry into Germany requires DB certification (DBS 921xxx series) + TSI interoperability + 5+ years field operation.
