Fire Protection of Rolling Stock


09 Feb 2010

With constant changes being made to the technical and regulatory environments, fire safety management for rolling stock is an increasingly complex area.  Further amendments to TSIs and CEN/TS 45545 still leave several elements of the regulatory framework on fire safety unclear, such as the combination of materials and components.  In the current transition period between national and European standards operators, rolling stock manufacturers and sub-suppliers are working on solutions as to how to implement these requirements in their organisations.  In addition, the development of new technologies and systems means that fire protection approaches have constantly to be reviewd.  Due to all these changes, better insight into current standards and future trends is needed in order to plan in the long term.

The event will establish strategic solutions and highlight new technologies to enhance fire protection of railway vehicles.  Through a series of best practice presentations and case studies, this event will provide you with insight into railway operator and tolling stock manufacturer approaches, as well as presentations from regulatory authroties, to current and upcoming fire safety issues.
