Photos: This is the German test train that will check if our railroads support speeds of 200 kmph
Two locomotives for speeds of 230 kilometers per hour (kmph) arrived at the Belgrade Center railway station in Prokop, along with measuring railroad cars
Special measuring railroad cars from German Railways (Deutsche Bahn) have arrived in Belgrade. From there, the dynamic testing of the Belgrade-Novi Sad high-speed railway will start today, and Telegraf Biznis was at the scene.
Two locomotives for speeds of 230 kilometers per hour (kmph) arrived at the Belgrade Center railway station in Prokop, along with measuring railroad cars.
Dynamic testing includes testing the geometry of newly built high-speed tracks, as well as the parameters of the contact network, the installed high-speed equipment, and compatibility of equipment and systems.
The dynamic testing on the railway between Belgrade and Novi Sad built for speeds of up to 200 kilometers per hour will last until February 4.
It will be performed from 6:30 until 17;30 when there is no train traffic, and is done under the auspices of Serbian Railway Infrastructure, in cooperation with the specialized company of German Railways - Systemtechnik.
Testing will be taking place in phases and on sections along the entire high-speed Belgrade-Novi Sad line.
Nenad Stanisavljevic from Serbian Railway Infrastructure told our portal that the dynamic testing included testing the geometry of newly built high-speed tracks, contact network parameters, installed high-speed equipment, compatibility of equipment and systems, as well as other construction works.
