In Korea, high-speed train(HEMU-400X) system with distributed power is being developed, and the highest test speed of this train is 400km/h. This developed the first high-speed train as a distributed power train in Korea, as well as for the development of train system and evaluation system included evaluation technology is needed. Accordingly, a comprehensive and efficient OMS(Overall Measurement System) was build up for verifying the performance of HEMU-400X. By the case study of the G7 and TTX, OMS of HEMU-400X was improved the test performance and maintainability. In particular, the existing Window-based systems has a limit to the control, due to this reason OMS applying enhanced RT(Real-time) system. In this study, compare the advantages and disadvantages of RT systems with Window-based systems, as well as the configuration of the RT systems.

This paper represents the results carried out to determine the dynamic response characteristics of Korea High Speed Rail(KHSR) bridges. The responses of the KHSR bridges subjected to the moving train loading are obtained through the simplified method for the 2-dimensional train/track/bridge interaction analysis in which the eccentricity of axle loads and the effect of the torsional forces acting on the bridge are included for the more accurate train/track/bridge interaction analysis. The results of the analyses are compared with the field test data to verify the performance of the 2-dimensional train/track/bridge interaction analysis method.

The Korean high speed train(KHST), developed since 1996, is presently undergoing commissioning tests on the high-speed track as well as on the conventional track since 2002. The purpose of the commissioning test is twofold: first to verify the performance of the train-set and equipments, and to demonstrate system reliability. Last December, KHST has reached the maximum speed of 350km/h and a number of data proving the performance of the train has been acquired. Among the data noise level and pressure variation in a cabin are important factors effecting passenger's comfort. Discussed in this paper are interior noise and pressure variation when the train passes tunnels during the 350km/h test.

The intelligent safety system for level crossing which employs information and communication technology has been developed in USA and Japan, etc. But, in Korea, the relevant research has not been performed. In this paper, we analyze the cause of railway level crossing accidents and the inherent problem of the existing safety equipments. Based on analyzed results, we design the intelligent safety system which prevent collision between a train and a vehicle. This system displays train approaching information in real-time at roadside warning devices, informs approaching train of the detected obstacle in crossing areas, and is interconnected with traffic signal to empty the crossing area before train comes. Especially, we present the video based obstacle detection algorithm and verify its performance with prototype H/W since the abrupt obstacles in crossing areas are the main cause of level crossing accidents. We identify that the presented scheme detects both pedestrian and vehicle with good performance. Currently, we demonstrate developed railway crossing intelligence system at one crossing of Young-dong-seon line of Korail with Sea Train cockpit.

Up to now, High speed train was widely used in France, Germany and Japan. In korea, High speed train was introduced from France train model and operation was made in year 2004. With this high speed operation Know-How, HSR-350 train was developed with our own technology. And now KTX-II which was made by our own technology are running in commercial line. High speed rolling stock system acceleration technology is train propulsion system and this is composed with traction motor, Power transfer system and auxiliary power system. This paper, introduced the performance of the traction propulsion system and other equipment that has been installed at the KTX-II will be secured.

The purpose of Railroad Vehicles License Management in accordance with the Railroad Safety Law is to improve the quality of railroad safety. And the train simulators come into use for training of train operation and testing to issue Railroad Vehicles License. So, It is very important that the simulators for the Railroad Vehicles License Test require to work correctly, to measure driver's operation quality in numerical system and to ensure the justice of license test. In fact, nobody can guarantee that the simulators are feasible performance to use in license test. The simulator for train driver license test can be used effectively for studying of needed performance and quality to test new driver's skill. This study hopefully provides the base for improving the quality of the simulator for train driver's license test and contributes furthermore to improve the simulator development technology and railroad safety.

In this paper, an effective way to develop electrical system for Korean High-Speed Train(KHST) was introduced. High speed train is complicated electrical system that consists of many kinds of control devices, power supplies and communication systems. Due to reason of cost, safety and time for development, it is not so easy to test system performance after construct the high speed train in the test track. For the effective test and verification of system performance, from each electric system test to integration test for all interconnected electrical system are performed to reduce time and cost for development of high speed train.

This paper dealt with a component test of train control and management system(TMS) developed for korean tilting train express(TTX). This system that is established on TTX monitors and controls action of various devices by running of the train. Also, to performance estimation of the TMS, it is essential to verify a composition and function of TMS. Therefore, this study reviewed standards related on a component test of the TMS and confirmed test items, test conditions and evaluation basis on a Component Test. Running Test of TTX can verify performance of TMS and communications with other devices and secure reliability of TMS.

This paper discusses the development of a generic train operation model from a set of Korean Urban Transit Regulations such as Regulation for Train Operation of Urban Transit, Regulation for Safety Requirements of Urban Transit and so on. It is to communicate with various stakeholders on urban transit system, and to elicit copious requirements in performance of the urban transit train operation based on the model.
