D DB International: Integrated rail transport solutions The display by DB International at InnoTrans 2012 provides the first opportunity to see the improvements that have been made to its product portfolio in three areas. The new Business Consulting division has now acquired an independent status. Further developments have been made to System Consulting, providing technical advice for comprehensive and interdisciplinary solutions for all kinds of transport providers. Engineering remains the company’s core activity. Business Consulting from DB International provides consultancy services for management in the context of the overall rail-mobility-logistics system, from advice about strategy and concepts to an analysis of efficiency and process optimisation. The defined areas of Strategy and Business Development, Training, Quality and Safety, and Processes and Regulations cover the four main themes, which are of equal relevance to transport companies and transport infrastructure as they are to regulatory, political organisations around the world. Business consultancy DB International GmbH, D-Berlin Hall 18, Booth 110 Martin Hagen +49 (0)30-29769970 martin.hagen@db-international.de www.db-international.de Rail transport solutions DB Mobility Logistics: ICx with up to 24 different train configurations Deutsche Bahn (DB) is using InnoTrans 2012 to display a model of its end car for the ICx for the first time. The ICx will form the backbone of future DB long distance services, the exhibitor points out. The technical basis is provided by an innovative platform concept, but consisting of tried and tested components that are already being successfully deployed in various combinations of equipment in other series of trains. Despite the technical uniformity of its rolling stock the ICx offers a great deal of flexibility, with up to 24 different train configurations. This is achieved with powercars, combining all the drive unit components in one car. The improved aerodynamics of the new end car results in substantially reduced driving resistance. Lighter construction methods have enabled weight reductions of some 20 tonnes for a 200 metre long train. Compared with trains currently in service the energy consumption per passenger has been reduced by up to 30 per cent.

D DB Regio: Diesel railcar 642 on a hybrid basis In a joint pilot project Deutsche Bahn and MTU Friedrichshafen have been developing and trialling a hybrid propulsion unit for use with rail passenger services. For this purpose a Series 642 diesel-mechanical railcar has been converted into a hybrid vehicle. The new propulsion system, in the form of a hybrid powerpack, uses a generator to convert the kinetic energy produced by braking into electrical energy. This electrical energy is temporarily stored in batteries and is available for use during the journey if required. It is planned to obtain approval for use on passenger services by the end of the year. The parallel hybrid set-up enables the vehicle to be powered either by the diesel or the electric motor, or as a diesel-electric combination. Financial support for the project has been provided by the Federal Ministry of Transport, Construction and Urban Development under the Model Regions Electromobility project under the coordination of NOW GmbH National Organisation for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology.

It imports real data from other applications, which it converts and compresses. Visualisation can be used on a computer to show movement through stations and along the tracks as well as through large construction sites. In this way operational processes in maintenance, working processes during the transhipment of freight and the flow of travellers through a station can be simulated. Even highly complex infrastructural projects can be shown in their entirety and rendered visible to those involved in the pro- ject, decision-makers or local residents. Planning errors can be immediately identified, while communication and coordination are simplified. This flexible and comprehensive solution encompasses advice about the procurement and refinement of data, interfaces to the data sources and the provision of the relevant software.
