Autonomous Train Technology Market News and Recent Developments

The autonomous train technology market is evaluated by gathering qualitative and quantitative data post primary and secondary research, which includes important corporate publications, association data, and databases. A few of the developments in the autonomous train technology market are listed below:

• Siemens Mobility will upgrade the first section of Finland's rail network under the Finnish government's "Digirail project," which involves renewing the country's train control system. The contract was recently awarded and includes the installation of the European Train Control System Levels 2 [ETCS L2] and the Hybrid Train Detection [HTD] for the first time in Finland on the 191-kilometer stretch between Lielahti and Rauma-Pori. This marks another milestone in the implementation of Siemens Mobility's latest interlocking and radio block center technology on the new DS3 platform, which is entirely based on commercial-off-the-shelf [COTS] hardware. The new train control system aims to increase the network's capacity, improve punctuality, minimize disruptions, and enhance the safety of operations. It will pave the way for a more sustainable, efficient, and safe railway network and is expected to be in commercial service by 2031. (Source: Siemens, Press Release, April 2024)
