Annex III 1

Technical characteristics of the network of major international combined transport lines

Opening Remarks

The parameters are summarized in the table below. The values shown in column A of the table should be considered as important objectives, to be achieved in accordance with the national railway development plans. Any deviation from these values should be considered exceptional.

There are two main categories of lines:

(a)
Lines Existing , which can be improved if necessary; it is often difficult and sometimes impossible to modify their geometrical characteristics, in particular; the requirements for them are therefore moderate;
(b)
Lines New , to build.

By analogy, the specifications set out in the table below are also applicable, where applicable, to ferry-boat services which form an integral part of the rail network.

***

Minimum standards for combined transport trains (see Annex IV).

Explanation of the parameters shown in the table above

1. Number of lanes

Combined international transport lines must offer a high capacity and a high degree of movement.

In principle, these two requirements can only be met by lines with at least two lanes; however, lines on a track could be accepted provided that they meet the other parameters set out in the Agreement.

2. Vehicle Gabarit

This is the minimum standard on combined international transport lines.

On Rows New , the adoption of an important template generally requires only a limited marginal cost of investment, which allows the UIC template C to be retained.

In particular, template C allows:

-
The transport of vehicles and commercial road assemblies (lorries and trailers, articulated vehicles, tractors and semi-trailers) to the European road gauge (height 4 m, width 2.50 m) on special cars whose loading plan is located at 60 cm above the rail level;
-
The transport of ordinary road trailers of a width of 2.50 m and a height of 4 m on standard hopper cars equipped with common bogies;
-
The transport of ISO containers of a width of 2.44 m and a height of 2.90 m on ordinary flat cars;
-
The transport of mobile crates of 2.50 m wide on ordinary flat cars;
-
The carriage of containers/crates with a width of 2.60 m and a height of 2.90 m on suitable rail cars.

Rows Existing Who cross mountainous regions (Pyrenees, Massif Central, Alps, Jura, Apennines, Carpathians, etc.) have numerous tunnels in the Technical Unit template or with slightly higher gauges in height along the axis of the track. In almost all cases, the UIC template C expansion is not economically and financially feasible.

The UIC template B is therefore retained for these lines. It includes:

-
The transport of ISO containers of a width of 2.44 m and a height of 2.90 m on container flat cars with a load plan of 1.18 m above the rail level;
-
The transport of swap bodies of a width of 2.50 m and a height of 2.60 m on normal flat cars (loading plan at a height of 1.246 m);
-
The transportation of semi-trailers by railcars;
-
The transport of containers/crates of a width of 2.60 m and a height of 2.90 m on special low load-plan cars.

Most international combined transport lines Existing Have at least UIC template B. On the other hand, the implementation of this template generally does not require significant investment.

4. Minimum definition speed

The minimum definition speed determines the choice of geometric characteristics of the plot (curve radius and devers), safety installations (braking distance) and the braking coefficients of the rolling stock.

5. Authorized axle mass

This is the permissible mass per axle that the main international lines must be able to bear.

Combined international transport lines must be able to absorb the most modern, existing and future traffic, in particular:

-
Cars with an axle mass of 20 t that corresponds to that of Class C of the UIC; an axle mass of 22.5 t was held up to 100 km/h in accordance with recent UIC decisions. The limitations of the axle mass at 20 t for 120 km/h correspond to the regulations of the UIC.

The specified axle weights are valid for wheel diameters equal to or greater than 840 mm, in accordance with the UIC regulations.

7. Minimum useful length of sidings

The minimum useful length of sidings for combined international transport lines is important for combined transport trains (see Annex IV).

Annex IV 1

Rail efficiency parameters and minimum standards for infrastructure

A. Requirements for the effectiveness of combined international transport services

1. In order to ensure efficient and rapid transport flows required by modern methods of manufacture and distribution of goods, international combined transport services should satisfy the conditions in particular Following:

(a)
Departures/arrivals in accordance with the customer's wishes (in particular late limit hours for the loading and rapid provision of goods), regular services;
(b)
Speed of door-to-door transport, high punctuality, safe transport times;
(c)
Safe and timely information on transport formalities, simple documentation, low risk of damage;
(d)
Be able to transport all types of standard containers and all load units that can be transported by international road transport in Europe. In this context, it is necessary to rely on the foreseeable evolution concerning the weights and dimensions of the loading units.

2. These conditions should be met by:

(a)
At a high speed of transport (measured from the point of departure at the place of destination, taking into account all the stops), which should be approximately the same as that of the transport of end-to-end by road or even higher;
(b)
The use of the hours during which the consignees do not work (e.g. night transport), to deliver the goods in the early morning hours, as desired by the customers;
(c)
Adequate and adequate infrastructure facilities and capabilities (e.g. appropriate loading templates);
(d)
Direct trains, if possible (that is, exclusion or minimum reduction of the transhipment of goods on other trains);
(e)
Organisational measures to improve the flow of traffic through modern telecommunications systems.

3. In order to meet the above conditions, trains and infrastructure facilities should be sufficiently efficient, that is, they should meet certain minimum standards, which must be met by all Authorities involved in a given transport link.

4. The following performance parameters and standards have been established in particular for large volumes of international transport, that is, for routes on which there is regular traffic of direct trains or, at least, Major car groups. However, conventional freight trains may continue to operate isolated rail cars or special transportation if this is consistent with the needs of the customers and interested railway companies.

B. Train performance parameters

5. Trains used for combined international transport shall meet the following minimum standards:

Minimum Standards

Objectives *

Minimum Definition Speed

100 km/h

120 km/h

Train Length

750 m

Weight of trains

*

These figures are expected to be approximately by the year 2000. They do not rule out the higher standards previously achieved, as long as these standards do not hinder the international development of combined transport.

If it is not possible to set up direct trains, trains should, if possible, be composed of a small number of groups of wagons of which all units would have the same destination. As far as possible, there should be no technical stops along the way or border controls.

6. The rolling stock shall meet the above standards for axle speed and load and be capable of carrying all load units which must be taken into account in terms of weight and dimensions.

7. Combined transport trains shall be regarded as having absolute priority. Their schedules will have to be designed to meet the needs of customers, who require reliable and regular transportation services.

C. Minimum Standards for Railway Lines

8. Railway lines intended for combined transport shall have sufficient daily capacity to avoid waiting for combined transport trains. These trains should also not be delayed by hours of rest.

9. For the modernisation of railway lines, the infrastructure parameters set out in Annex III shall apply.

D. Minimum standards for departure and arrival stations

10. For efficient handling of goods at stations, the following conditions shall be met:

(a)
The time between, on the one hand, the time limit for the acceptance of the goods and the departure of the trains, and, on the other hand, between the arrival of the trains and the time when the cars are ready for unloading the loading units, Shall not exceed one hour, unless it is possible to satisfy the clientele by other means with regard to the time limit for acceptance or the time at which the goods are available.
(b)
Waiting for delivery or pick-up of loading units by road vehicles will have to be as short as possible (maximum 20 minutes).
(c)
The location of the station shall be selected in a manner that:
-
Be accessible easily and quickly by road from economic centres;
-
As regards its location on the rail network, to be well connected to long-distance lines and, for transport links with traffic by groups of wagons, to be easy access for fast freight trains which Provide combined transport.

11. The minimum standards for the intermediate stations set out below will also apply to departure and arrival stations.

E. Minimum Standards for Intermediate Terminals

12. Stops along the way, which may be necessary for trains used for combined transport due to technical or operational reasons, for example at the point of exchange of car groups or change of gauge, will be used in Same time to perform tasks that would otherwise require other stops (e.g. border controls, locomotive switching). The requirements to be met by the infrastructure of these intermediate positions are as follows:

-
Have sufficient daily capacity on the feeder lines to avoid delays in combined transport trains.
-
The entrances and exits on the line will have to allow trains to infiltrate and exit without a waste of time. Their capacity will have to be sufficient to avoid delays in combined transport trains upon arrival and departure.
-
Have sufficient track capacity for the various types of tracks as required by the specific operations to be carried out at a station, in particular for arrival/departure paths, training routes, sorting and drawer routes, The loading lanes and the gauge change paths.
-
The routes listed above shall have templates corresponding to those of the railway lines to be used (UIC B or UIC C).
-
The track length shall be sufficient to accommodate whole combined transport trains.
-
For electric traction, the tracks shall be capable of being used by electric traction units (at the border stations: by means of electric traction units of the corresponding railway).
-
The capacity for transshipment, exchange of car groups, change of departure and control at borders will have to ensure that compulsory judgments are as short as possible.

(a) Car Group Exchange Stations

13. Combined transport shall, if possible, be provided by direct trains between the departure and arrival stations. If this is not economically viable due to the low volume of goods being transported and the transfer of goods from combined transport is therefore mandatory, it should at least be done by car groups. The stops required to carry out these operations shall not exceed 30 minutes each. This should be possible if trains are formed accordingly (the distances travelled should be as long as possible, even if it involves crossing crossings) and if the change stations of car groups are Equipped with adequate infrastructure.

(b) Border crossing points

14. Trains operated in combined transport shall as far as possible travel long distances across borders to a station where it is essential to change car groups or to their final destination, without having to Stop along the way. As far as possible, there will be no border stops, or, if this is unavoidable, only very short stops (maximum 30 minutes). This will be achieved by:

-
Not carrying out operations normally carried out at the border or, if this is not possible, by moving these operations to other stations within the country where trains are required to stop for technical reasons And/or administrative
-
By making at most one stop at the common border stations.

(c) Deviation change points

15. It will be necessary to develop both rapid and cost-effective methods to meet the needs in this area. When transshipment of loading units onto wagons of another template, the above requirements for transshipments at the station will have to be applied in the same way. Stops at the gauge change points should be as short as possible. The capabilities available to carry out this departure change or transhipment must be sufficient to ensure the brevity of the stops.

(d) Bindings by ferry/port vessels

16. The transport services shall correspond to the proposed transshipment services. Judgments in ports for goods transported in combined transport should be as short as feasible (if possible an hour maximum). In order to achieve this result, in addition to the appropriate infrastructure of the transshipment station and the appropriate transborder vessels (see para. 17 below), the following measures will be implemented:

-
Application of the conditions listed in s. 14 as regards the necessary border control measures;
-
Coordination of ferry and train schedules and rapid information to speed up ship loading and/or train formation.

17. Transferry vessels used for combined transport shall comply with the following requirements:

-
Ships of appropriate sizes and types as required by the loading units/freight cars used.
-
Rapid loading and unloading of vessels and storage of loading units/wagons in accordance with the requirements for subsequent carriage by rail (separation of combined transport of passenger and/or transport) Where applicable).
-
If the loading units remain on the cars during the crossing, the ferries will have to be easy to access and the yard operations requiring a lot of time should not be necessary. The template, the axle mass, etc., should conform to the parameters of the line listed in Annex III.
-
If the transfer of loading units is to be carried out without the wagons, the possible transport to be carried out by the road between the port of the ferries and the train station should be characterised by short distances and good Road links.
