RSRD² is a Sector Tool that makes freight car operation more efficient § RSRD²? = rolling stock reference database + mileage interface § Keepers are an integrated part of European freight rail operations § Keepers’ vehicles are migrating like nomads § (Private) Keepers and their chosen ECMs have enhanced duties to comply with UIP has chosen to develop a comprehensive operational tool for freight car data exchange: RSRD² 3

RSRD² is a Sector Tool that makes freight car operation more efficient § UIP thinks the tool is well done and can serve all keepers. § RSRD² is fulfilling the mandatory TAF TSI obligations. § We have a common interest: to make freight car operation more efficient/to increase the modal share of rail in freight. § RSRD² serves to execute existing obligations of all fleet managers/asset managers. 4

RSRD² is a fully operational real time Data Base with 24/7 accessibility § RSRD² is an operational Data Base. § RSRD² data content will be built around the needs of the users § Authorization for data access can be customized by the keeper (time window/car number/data scope/party) § RSRD² data are accurate and up to date and in the direct ownership/liability of the keeper and his ECM. § RSRD² is CI compliant, modern, efficient, cheap, transparent, confidential and open to modification. 5

UIP developed the RSRD² system with the funding support of six major private wagon keepers 7

RSRD² has been designed as standardised data exchange platform for wagon keepers Provision of wagon data Collection & processing of mileage data § Comprehensive data set, covering national vehicle register data, GCU data, ECM data, etc. § Provision of technical data (wagon design, load limits, brake and wheel set information) and maintenance due dates. § Central Interface to collect mileage data from several sources (RUs). § Provision of consistent mileage data to wagon keepers in support of their vehicle maintenance and safety agenda. 8

RSRD² encompasses a comprehensive set of administrative, design and maintenance data 1. Administration Wagon identification, registration, authorisation and certification information 2. Technical Design 3. Maintenance Wagon design and Inspection and overhaul interoperability cycle and due date information required for information operation 9

Keepers require detailed mileage information on single trip level from RUs to verify data quality and consistency § GCU contract: delivery of mileage by RUs § Access to wagon data for free/in return mileage delivery for free into RSRD² § RSRD² central mileage data platform RSRD² - Collection from various RUs - Sorting and allocating - Delivery to respective keeper § Linking of data to a mileage chain? § Detection of gaps and overlaps? Mileage messages 10
