"Let's deploy it before it becomes obsolete, " ERTMS has already been successfully implemented in a large number of countries in Europe and has shown how the signaling systems of different suppliers can work together by following common specifications. It is now crucial for rail freight competitiveness that ERTMS be implemented along the 6 main freight corridors across Europe to reduce implementation costs Sofia, 22 -23/05/2008 E. R. C.

RAILWAY SAFETY AND INTEROPERABILITY ERTMS AND FREIGHT RAILWAY EXPERIENCES Conclusions and Recomendations 1. The Member States should be required to equip ERTMS with first priority on the European freight corridors 2. Besides other Telematics applications, TAF is the second (compulsory) challenge to meet for full customer orientation and fair competition for freights 3. The Commission should (will) support for a consistent European Master Plan for ERTMS 4. UIC to continue with the TAF Task force (John Lutz) 5. One stop shop orientation is (always) mandatory Sofia, 22 -23/05/2008 E. R. C. European Railway Consulting E. R. C. europeanrailwayconsulting@gmail. com Gabriel Mª Fernández Mateos

RAILWAY SAFETY AND INTEROPERABILITY ERTMS AND FREIGHT RAILWAY EXPERIENCES Conclusions and Recomendations 7. The European Railway Agency (ERA) has to (will) ensure the technical governance for the migration conditions 8. Operators that take the risk to invest will have to be supported financially. 9. The UE continue to support the move from 20 national systems to one European integrated system, and to favor exchanges by rail mode. 10. Finally…the high needed investments for ERTMS are more than justified by the avoided external costs. Sofia, 22 -23/05/2008 E. R. C. European Railway Consulting E. R.
