ETCS Baseline 4 – what is new?
By Francesca Leoci
In July 2024, Baseline 4 R1 of the CCS TSI was released, with the introduction of Baseline 0 for the FRMCS and Baseline 1 for ATO.
The link to the complete documentation relative to this new baseline is the following:
• CCS TSI Mandatory Specifications ETCS B4 R1 RMR:GSM-R B1 MR1 FRMCS B0 ATO B1
The new Baseline introduces important innovations, especially for the definition of the following new technologies:
• Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS);
• Automatic Train Operation (ATO).
Before describing these new technologies, let’s start by highlighting some important differences compared to Baseline 3 R2.
From an application point of view, Level 3 has been removed, delegating any Train Integrity supervision functionality to Level 2.
The image below indicates how the new Level 2 of the Baseline 4 R1 has been implemented.
New In Signal on the workshop for ERTMS/ETCS Hybrid Train Detection (HTD) in Stockholm
Held within the framework of the EU-RAIL R2DATO FP2/WP37 group, this technical event in World Trade Center Stockholm brought together experts, researchers and industry professionals to discuss the latest challenges in the development of specifications for ETCS Hybrid Train Detection (HTD), as a natural successor of pure ETCS Level 2 system.
The workshop covered a wide array of topics in several sessions, including the following:
• Insights on the current implementation status of ETCS HTD in several countries (Italy, Spain, France, Canada, India)
• Analysis of main benefits and risks for the implementation of ETCS HTD (train integrity detection, capacity issues, budgets)
• Current status and challenges in standardization of ETCS HTD (principles, engineering rules, testing and certification)
• Evaluation of main ETCS HTD implementation criteria (capacity, costs, reliability, robustness, energy consumption)
• ETCS HTD implementation strategies
At the end, the attendees also participated in an interactive technical session tasked to simulate all necessary steps in the future development and implementation of the ETCS HTD.
We wish to thank Joelle Aoun and other organizers for inviting our representative to this prestigious event.

New In Signal on InnoTrans 2024, Berlin
The InnoTrans 2024 fair in Berlin has once again proven itself to be the leading international trade show for transport technology, with railway signalling and telecommunications taking an important stage. As representatives of New In Signal, we had the privilege of exploring the latest developments in the industry and networking with key players.
This year’s edition was packed with groundbreaking innovations. One of the highlights was the emphasis on digitalization, with companies presenting cutting-edge solutions that enhance efficiency and interoperability in railway operations. From advanced signalling software to new approaches in automation, the future of technology was on full display.
How to become a top railway signalling engineer?
breaking news
The world’s largest railway technology show, Innotrans 2024, will take place again this September, from 24th to 27th, in Berlin.
New In Signal will collaborate with the “Institute Mihajlo Pupin” (www.pupin.rs a company producer of signaling and telecommunication equipment) at Innotrans 2024, so you can find us on their stand in hall 27, booth 840.

What is High Performance Signalling?
First of all, welcome dear reader to my column about “High Performance Signalling”. I hope you find these articles insightful and instructive and will do my best to give you premium “food for thought” as well as practical and applicable advice. Yet it is prudent to add this…
So what do I mean by High Performance Signalling? And why do I think that CBTC provides that more than ETCS or any other mainstream signalling technology?
I coined that term High Performance Signalling around 2016 because I thought, and still think, that the popular (at least here in Australia) term High Capacity Signalling…

Railway Interoperability on European Tracks | Article, June 2024
In the European Union in 2020, rail transported around 1.4 billion tonnes of freight and 4.2 billion passengers. These numbers represent the magnitude of importance of the railway in the transportation sector. They would not be achieved if not for the robust engineering of the signaling systems. Trains are usually intended to operate on different railway lines, corridors, and various countries, many times including cross-border sections, which require multiple pre-conditions to be met. These conditions, put together, allow for seamless transportation for passengers and transport of goods. While it is in the passengers’ interest to commute effortlessly, it is on the engineering side to design safety-related systems that properly communicate with each other and exchange information. In advanced signaling systems like the European Train Control System (ETCS), the backbone of efficient and robust systems is interoperability.
