track inclination

Test the behaviour of the subsystem under as many different operational conditions as reasonably possible (e.g. line gradient, train speed, vibrations, traction power, weather conditions, design of Control-Command and Signalling track-side functionality).

-3- Harmonization to establish a network on a Community scale will concern: - specifics of the infrastructure and its equipment: track gauge, line profiles and in particular maximum gradients, the radii of curves, permitted axle weights, types of current for electric traction, the allotment of lines either for mixed traffic or for passenger traffic alone, and as a consequence the nature of the routes and feasible speeds; - traffic control systems which must be highly compatible if not unified, as much in terms of equipment as in the regulation of their use; - the definition of rolling stock specifically for the services they will be us ...[+++]ed in, and for which they are ordered and constructed to individual specifications, whoever the owner and the operator may be; - development of industrial cooperation in equipment and stock.

The TGV of the future will need to reach speeds of 350 km/h on scheduled runs on new track and to negotiate gradients of up to 4%.
