A Train control system is intended to assure train operation safety and to improve train operation efficiency. To perform these missions, the Train Control System consists of train safety space control part, train route control part and train operation management part. Train control technology changed from track circuit based to wireless based. And Wireless based train control technologies were developed by some railway signaling companies in Korea. To commercialize these control technologies, the development project is carried now. This project did analyze system requirements, and made the system development specification. Now this project finished system functions allocation, which will be performed by some subsystem. This paper describes roles of each function and the allocation of these functions to each subsystem.

IEC 62278 presents a process to implement a consistent approach to the management of reliability for railway applications. A reliability program has to be established at the outset of a project in order to manage reliability activities effectively through the life cycle. The first step of the reliability program is to evaluate reliability requirements and targets based on the system specifications. The system specifications are derived from the customer's needs. The way in which the system requirements reflect the customer's needs is strongly dependent on the characteristics of the product. In general the customer of commercial trains presents the system requirements from their needs. However, the relation between the customer and supplier is equivocal for a project to development a prototype train, and the reliability program should be different from that of an usual commercial project. This paper deals with a process to manage reliability activities for the development of a protype train based on the experiences obtained from the development of the Korea High-Speed Train: Hanvit-350.

The objectives of this paper are to introduce the PI(Public Involvement) in railway project and case study about public participation in decision making process for Ko-Yang light rail line development, besides to emphasize the importance of information considering the difference of resident location, regional character and so on are investigated before and after public participation. As the results, it was clarified about PI activities styles that consensus is not achieved in Ko-Yang public participation, the psychological factor such as the knowledge and satisfaction, receptivity about light rail project strongly is affected to making decision.

The next Korean high speed train development project is started. In testing stage of this project, the 400km/h maximum speed test will be conducted. In Korean railway infrastructure conditions the 400km/h seems to be a critical speed especially in the aspect of the overhead contact lines. The current collection performance of the 400km/h which is predicted by dynamic interaction simulation are described in this paper. To discuss the permissible criteria of contact forces, displacements and percentage contact loss, the French 575km/h current collection conditions are simulated. Furthermore, review of the simulation results of the Korean 400km/h current collection conditions is conducted through comparison with that of the French 575km/h.

This study is about a feasibility study for the practical using Urban Transit Maglev system based on systems engineering. First of all we defined what phase is matched with the project for feasibility study in the system life cycle and identified tasks that shall be done in the phase. Finally we suggested how to do in this project. The Urban Transit Maglev system is not wholly new system. It has similar architecture to a legacy urban railway system. But it is the system that is partially introduced new technology, because there are many projects have this characteristic within the country, we expect that this study may provide references.

The first task for the development of a train system is to define the system and to determine its requirements. Reliability target is one of the requirements defined in the system requirements. In railway applications it is advised to follow the procedures given in IEC 62278 to fulfill reliability requirements. The reliability requirements are derived from the customer's needs. The way in which the system requirements reflect the customer's needs is strongly dependent on the characteristics of the product. In general the customer of commercial trains presents the system requirements from their needs. However, the relation between the customer and supplier is equivocal for a project to development a prototype train, and the reliability program should be different from that of an usual commercial project. This paper deals with the reliability management and assessment plan carried out for the on-going "Next generation high-speed train development project".

Research and development project for the gearboxes of Korea High Speed Train is being run as one of the 'G7 Project' to achieve the Technical Independency in the area for the High Speed - High Load Gearboxes. Executing this project we domesticate the technologies for Design, Analysis, Manufacturing and Testing. Acquired high-technologies can be applied not only to the Rolling Stocks, but also to other Industrial Areas including the Cars and Aerovehicles. The prototypes had been tested on the roller rig and are being tested on the railway.

Since 1996, the G7 R&D and High-Speed Rail development project have been accomplished and it will be completed in 2007. During that time, we have achieved the origin design technique based on technique development experience. However, in order to magnify and to promote the growth of the origin design technique for railway industry to be a growth motive industry in future from intensive speed elevation and new technique competition of advanced nations, we need to prepare the next generation high-speed rail technique and to sustain expansion of the technique with getting hold of new technique tendency of the world. Therefore, this paper make research into necessity of the next generation high-speed rail development project, making an analysis of foreign countries cases and forward plan.

Recently the Korean Government is increasing investment and interest on railway in the transportation field as "low carbon and green growth" policy become main national development strategy. While railway competitiveness is weakening over the road from the inconvenient door-to-door and transfer system of railway, it is meaningful to review excellent railway transfer system of advanced countries and adapt their implications for Korea. Their transfer systems like Japan, Hongkong, France, U.K. and German can be categorized in this research as kinds of transfer & connectivity system and transfer facility & flow planning, and, as a result, their implications can be concluded. Also, analyzing transfer system of Korea's main stations and reviewing the difference between Korea and other countries, this paper suggests main principles and directions of urban planning, alignment of rail line, partnership of project stakeholder in the establishment of transfer system in the railway station in the future.
