British Rail Class 313 - ERTMS Trials On The Hertford Loop

ERTMS Trials On The Hertford Loop

Network Rail plans to use Eversholt Rail owned unit 313121 as a test vehicle for European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) on the Hertford Loop, where it hopes to have the facility running by 2014 or earlier. The plan involves resignalling a 5.5 mile section of the double track route to allow existing services to use only one line, freeing the other for ERTMS tests.

Famous quotes containing the word trials:

    Misfortune is never mournful to the soul that accepts it; for such do always see that every cloud is an angel’s face. Every man deems that he has precisely the trials and temptations which are the hardest of all others for him to bear; but they are so, simply because they are the very ones he most needs.
    Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
