6 1. Executive summary This reprt cntains the data prvided t reprt the status f the implementatin by f the fllwing TAF TSI [2] functins: Reference Files Functin: Cmpany Cdes Primary Lcatin Cdes Cmmn Interface Functin Rlling Stck Reference Database. Train Running Infrmatin Functin Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database This secnd reprt, cmpared t the first ne issued in April 2015, cntains the reprting abut the implementatin f tw new functins agreed by the ERA TAF TSI Cperatin Grup in February Mrever, the participatin f the cmpanies has grwn in all aspects. Fr 187 cmpany cntacts registered in the JSG Reprting Tl, the 81 respnses has nearly dubled the number f respnses gt in the 1 st reprt. T better evaluate the current degree f implementatin fr every functin, the data prvided is cmpared t the baseline defined in the Master Plan (1) 1 t implement the TAF TSI [2] regulatin delivered by the Eurpean Rail Sectr in The TAF-TSI Master Plan (1) was submitted t the TAF-TSI Steering Cmmittee, DG MOVE and ERA n 15th Nvember, A ttal f 58 cmpanies, representing ver 85% f the ttal Tnne and Track Kilmetres in Eurpe respnded with their individual plans fr implementatin. The target dates are based n the crrespnding TAF-TSI functin t be implemented and they were set when 80% r mre f the respndents indicated a final implementatin. The data prvided is a self-declaratin made by every cmpany abut the level f implementatin f the abve mentined functins. Mst f the data has been cllected thrugh an entity set-up by the Eurpean Rail Sectr, Jint Sectr Grup (JSG), t technically supprt the implementatin f the system. The members f the JSG are: CER 2 UIC EIM UNIFE UIRR ESC UIP RNE ERFA RAILDATA 1 See «Chapter 0. Cntents» fr Reference Dcuments. 2 See «Chapter 0. Cntents» fr acrnyms. Page 6 f 54

7 Regarding the functin Rlling Stck Reference Database, the implementatin data has been cllected by the JSG in clse cperatin with the Internatinal Unin f Wagn Keepers, UIP. They have submitted t ERA a file cntaining the status infrmatin f ne hundred sixteen (116) cmpanies acrss Eurpe. The fllwing key findings per TAF functin can be highlighted: The majrity f IMs has cmpleted the ppulatin f the Cmmn Reference Files fr lcatins n their netwrk. Thereby, it cannt be bserved a big difference cmpared t the 1 st reprt. Cmpany cdes are already widely used within the sectr, bth by IMs and RUs. Nevertheless, sme difficulties t get the Cmpany Cdes may be drawn frm the results f the survey perfrmed fr this particular functin. The majrity f RUs is still develping the cmmn interface, while a number f IMs have already finished the implementatin f the cmmn interface. The deplyment f the Rlling Stck Reference Database has been already launched, hwever mainly UIP members have delivered data cncerning the implementatin f this functin. Regarding the data delivered, these Wagn Keepers cmpanies have already cmpleted the implementatin f this functin. The level f realisatin f Train Running Infrmatin is prgressing in accrdance with the implementatin schedule quted in the TAF TSI Master plan by The level f fulfilment f the Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database is still very lw based n the realisatin milestnes reflected n the TAF TSI Master Plan (1), where half f Railway Undertakings respndents cmmitted t deply this functin by 2016 and the whle implementatin t be perfrmed by Furthermre, the reprt identifies the functins where the sectr shall allcate mre resurces t meet the target implementatin date quted in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1). In particular this reprt shws that the implementatin f the Rlling Stck Reference Database (RSRD) by 1 st half f 2015 is in average fr the verall Eurpean rail sectr delayed cmpared t the declared target implementatin date in the Master Plan, The drivers fr the implementatin f this functin are the Private Wagn Owners, mstly UIP members, and the Railway Undertakings (RUs). Hwever, cmpared t the 1 st Implementatin reprt, the RUs have already started delivering infrmatin abut the implementatin f the TAF TSI [2] cmpliant RSRD database. Page 7 f 54

8 2. Intrductin This 2 nd Status Reprt is delivered accrding t the legal frame prvided by the Cmmissin Regulatin (EU) N 1305/2014 f 11 December 2014 n the Technical Specificatin fr Interperability relating t the Telematics Applicatins fr Freight subsystem f the rail system in the Eurpean Unin and repealing the Regulatin (EC) N 62/2006 in frce, TAF TSI [2]. In particular, Article 5 f the Regulatin [2] attributes t the Eurpean Railway Agency the task t assess and versee the implementatin f the Regulatin t determine whether the agreed bjectives and deadlines have been achieved and t prvide an assessment reprt t the TAF steering cmmittee referred t in Sectin f the Annex. Furthermre, the Eurpean Cmmissin (EC) issued a letter n (2) describing the tasks expected t be carried ut by the Agency fr the Assessment f TAF TSI [2] implementatin. Beynd this, this activity meets the 4 th Strategic Pririty f the ERA wrk prgrammes 2014 and 2015, Simplified Access fr Custmers. On this basis, the Agency launched in Octber 2014 the C-peratin Grup fr the Implementatin f Telematics Applicatins fr Freight. The C-peratin Grup perfrms the fllwing tasks: T assess the reprts frm the sectr (cmpanies, NCPs and RBs) abut the TAF TSI [2] implementatin. T cmpare the data received with the cntent f the TAF TSI Master Plan (1) and assess the prgress f implementatin t determine whether the bjectives pursued and deadlines have been achieved. T use Key Perfrmance Indicatrs (KPIs) 3 previusly agreed between the Agency and the Rail Sectr t assess the evlutin f the deplyment f the system and reprt twice per year t the Eurpean Cmmissin and t the TAF Steering Cmmittee. T perfrm a disseminatin campaign t NCPs and assist them t fllw-up the TAF TSI [2] implementatin at natinal level. All these activities are perfrmed in clse cperatin with the different stakehlders, wh will prvide implementatin reprts. The diagram belw shws the prcess allwing ERA t perfrm the abve listed activities: Figure 1: ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup prcess. 3 It will be used frm next reprt. Page 8 f 54

9 ERA has t infrm the EC abut the results f this mnitring and has t advise the EC abut the pssible changes needed. In a multimdal cntext, ERA has t guarantee that any f the actins taken d nt create additinal bstacles fr multimdal envirnment. In additin, the effrt made by the Eurpean rail sectr t deply the TAF TSI [2] system is als supprted by the Cnnecting Eurpe Facility (CEF) [4] prgramme launched by the Eurpean Cmmissin and managed by the INEA Executive Agency. The CEF 4 [4] will better mbilise private financing and allw fr innvative financial instruments such as guarantees and prject bnds t gain maximum leverage frm this EU funding injectin at it s a financial tl at dispsal f all the cmpanies implementing TAF TSI [2] regulatin. 3. Cntext The final versin f the TAF-TSI Master Plan (1), establishing the implementatin timeline fr the Regulatin, was submitted t the TAF-TSI Steering Cmmittee, DG MOVE and ERA n 15 th Nvember A ttal f 58 cmpanies, representing ver 85% f the ttal Tnnes and Track Kilmetres in Eurpe respnded with their individual plans fr implementatin. Target dates were set when 80% r mre f the respndents indicated a final implementatin. The target dates are based n the crrespnding TAF-TSI functin t be implemented. An analysis, based n Crridr Regulatin N 913/2010 [3], was als incrprated int this Master Plan (1). As the Crridr Regulatin specifically addresses Shrt Term Path Requests and Train Running Infrmatin, these were the nly functins included. It shuld be nted that the TAF-TSI is a supprting tl and nt a prerequisite fr the implementatin f Regulatin N 913/2010. Therefre the later date f implementatin f the TAF-TSI shuld have n impact n the implementatin f 913/2010. In rder t cllect the data and t bst the invlvement f the higher pssible number f cmpanies, the Eurpean Railway Agency has clsely wrked with the Eurpean Rail Sectr t set-up the apprpriate mechanism t cllect the data cncerning the deplyment f the abve mentined functins. Indeed, the Eurpean Rail Sectr gruped thrugh the entity Jint Sectr Grup (JSG) and the Agency has set-up tw IT tls t cllect and visualize the data submitted by the Eurpean rail cmpanies, Infrastructure Managers, Railway Undertakings and Wagn Keepers. Fr this purpse the cmpanies submit their infrmatin t the JSG IT tl thrugh a Web service available fr all the cmpanies registered. Fr the time being the number f registered cmpanies is ne hundred eighty seven (187). Once the data is cllected, the raw data is delivered t the Agency, wh incrprates this infrmatin in the ERA IT tl fr TAF TSI [2] mnitring. This 4 3_interperability.pdf Page 9 f 54

10 IT tl cmprises a database t stre the data and a GIS tl t visualize n maps the prgress f the implementatin. There are three grups f maps: Maps t reprt abut cmmn functins. These maps shw the degree f implementatin f the Reference Files (Cmpany Cdes and Primary Lcatin Cdes) and the Cmmn Interface functins at Eurpean level. Maps t reprt abut RU-IM Cmmunicatin functins. The presentatin f the prgress evlutin per crridrs underpins the implementatin f Crridr Regulatin N 913/2010 [3]. Thereby, these maps represent the prgress f the implementatin at cuntry level and at crridr level f the functins implementing the exchange f data fr the fllwing prcesses: Shrt Term Path Request, Train Running Infrmatin, Train Preparatin, Service Disruptin and Unique Train Identifiers. Maps t reprt abut Railway Undertaking s functins. These maps shw the degree f implementatin at cuntry level f the functins t exchange data amngst Railway Undertakings and Wagn Keepers: Cnsignment Data Functin, Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin, Wagn Mvement Functin, Shipment ETA Functin and Rlling Stck Reference Database. The scpe f the present reprt is t infrm abut the deplyment f the functins scheduled t be implemented by 1 st half 2015 in the Master Plan (1) delivered by the sectr fr the implementatin f the TAF TSI [2] system. As it was agreed by the members f the C-peratin Grup fr the Implementatin f Telematics Applicatins fr Freight in the 1st meeting held n 26 th February 2015, this reprt prvides infrmatin abut the implementatin f the fllwing functins: Reference Files Functin: Cmpany Cdes Primary Lcatin Cdes Cmmn Interface Functin Rlling Stck Reference Database. Train Running Infrmatin Functin Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database T have a cmmn apprach fr all cmpanies cntributrs submitting implementatin infrmatin, an ptinal cmmn criterin has been agreed with the representatives f the rail sectr t assess the degree f deplyment f TAF TSI functins. This criterin is based n the standard divisin in prject phases f IT prjects defined in the methdlgy fr prject management in use at the Eurpean Cmmissin (PM 2 ). Assuming that prject phases are divisins within a prject where extra cntrl is needed t effectively manage the cmpletin f a majr deliverable, then it may be ideally assimilated each f the 12 TAF TSI functins identified in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1) t an individual IT reference implementatin prject. Page 10 f 54

11 Within every individual IT reference implementatin prject, we use percentages f cmpletin as early indicatrs t track the prgress made each perid f ne year (n-3, n-2, and n-1, n) ver a 4-year time span. This will allw raising warnings t prevent delays in the implementatin f a particular functin. Therefre, taking int accunt the abve mentined assumptins, every functin implementatin may be cnsidered as an individual prject t be split in the fllwing reference phases: Initiating Phase: This phase may cmprise thse prcesses perfrmed t define a new prject r a new phase f an existing prject by btaining authrizatin t start the prject r phase. This phase includes typically the fllwing activities: Feasibility Study Business Case Gathering f Technical and Functinal Requirements These activities may crrespnd in an ptinal reference implementatin t a Degree f Implementatin (DI) between 0% and 25% fr a particular functin. If the DI is achieved at the beginning f the timeframe fr the deplyment f such a functin, deadline minus ideally three years (deadline-3), the implementatin f this functin can be deemed n time. Planning Phase: this phase includes typically thse activities required t establish the scpe f the prject, refine the bjectives, and define the curse f actin required t attain the bjectives that the prject was undertaken t achieve: Resurce Planning Prject Wrk Planning (Wrking Break Dwn Structure) Migratin Planning Outsurcing Plan Risk Management Planning These activities may crrespnd in an ptinal reference implementatin t a Degree f Implementatin (DI) between 25% and 50% fr a particular functin. If the DI is achieved within the deadline minus ideally tw years (deadline-2) perid, the implementatin f this functin culd be deemed t be n time. Executing Phase: this phase may cmprise thse prcesses perfrmed t cmplete the wrk defined in the prject management plan t satisfy the prject specificatins. This phase includes activities such as: Prcurement Executing Testing (User Acceptance and system Integratin) Training and Educatin These activities may crrespnd in an ptinal reference implementatin t a Degree f Implementatin (DI) between 50% and 75% fr a particular functin. If the DI is achieved within the deadline minus ideally ne year (deadline-1) perid, the implementatin f this functin culd be deemed t be n time. In Prductin & Mnitr & Cntrl: this phase may cmprise thse prcesses perfrmed t finalise all activities acrss all phases t frmally clse the prject. Therefre, it may include the delivery f the prduct/service, in the cntext f the TAF TSI [2] deplyment, the delivery f the IT system implementing a particular TAF TSI [2] functin mving t prductin envirnment. These activities crrespnd in an ptinal reference implementatin t a Degree f Implementatin (DI) between 75% t 100% fr a particular functin. If the DI is achieved within the deadline minus ideally ne year (deadline-1) perid, the implementatin f this functin culd be deemed t be n time. Page 11 f 54

12 The abve explained phases are summarised in the fllwing diagram explaining the expected cmmitment f resurces made fr every phase f the prject. Figure 2: PM 2 prject lifecycle. Nevertheless, the different activities t be develped in the framewrk f a prject t implement a particular TAF TSI [2] functin shuld be adapted t the particular situatin in every cmpany. Therefre, every prject may be assimilated, in a vluntary basis, t the additin f the fur phases afrementined (Initiating, Planning, Executing and Clsing) establishing an ptinal cmparable reference implementatin t assess the prgress f the implementatin per cmpany. In cnclusin, in the cntext f the C-peratin Grup fr TAF TSI Implementatin there are tw ways t reprt abut the implementatin f a particular TAF TSI functin cmpared t the TAF TSI Master Plan (1): n ne hand, cmpanies may declare the final delivery f a particular TAF TSI functin within the deadline set ut in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1); in this case the implementatin f this functin will be deemed t be n time, and thus DI = 100% -> Green clur n the map; n the ther hand, cmpanies may declare the Degree f Implementatin (DI) fr every functin taking int accunt the ptinal methdlgy afrementined based n different phases fr the prject. In this case, the declared Degree f Implementatin will be clur-cded and displayed as fllws: Prject nt launched: 0% r n data -> Blue clur n the map. Initiating Phase accmplished: DI < 25% -> Red clur n the map. Planning Phase accmplished: 25% =< DI < 50% -> Orange clur n the map. Executing Phase accmplished: 50% =< DI < 75% -> Light Green clur n the map. In Prductin & Mnitr & Cntrl accmplished: 75% =< DI =< 100% -> Green clur n the map. Page 12 f 54

13 4. Analysis TAF TSI Master Plan (1) shws that mst f functins f the TAF TSI can be achieved by the end f 2018, with mst functins peratinal by The mst difficult part f the realisatin will be the implementatin f the unique Train Identifiers (TID), upn which many ther functins are dependent. Indeed, the first set f functins t be implemented in rder t facilitate the further deplyment f the system is: Reference Files Functin: Cmpany Cdes Primary Lcatin Cdes Cmmn Interface Functin Rlling Stck Reference Database. In additin t the abve listed functins, the members f the TAF TSI Implementatin C-peratin Grup agreed in the 1 st ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup, meeting held n 26 th February 2015, t add in the 2 nd reprt cncerning the implementatin f TAF TSI [2] by 1 st half 2015 the fllwing functins: Train Running Infrmatin Functin Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin 4.1. Evlutin f TAF functins at Cuntry level In line with the timeline defined in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1) and the request f the TAF TSI Implementatin C-peratin Grup members, the reprting f this secnd reprt is limited t the TAF TSI [2] functins which culd be achieved by 1 st half 2015: Reference Files Functin: Cmpany Cdes Primary Lcatin Cdes Cmmn Interface Functin Rlling Stck Reference Database. Train Running Infrmatin Functin Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin The data were cllected by the JSG tl in July 2015 and transferred t the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup IT tl. Cncerning the criteria adpted t estimate the level f implementatin per cuntry, it has been agreed within the cntext f the TAF TSI Implementatin C-peratin Grup t apply a weighting factr per cmpany t thse functins where the market share f RUs, Wagn keepers and Infrastructure Managers is relevant t have a better view f the degree f implementatin per cuntry. Thereby, the weighting factr per cmpany has been applied fr the fllwing functins: Rlling Stck Reference Database. Train Running Infrmatin Functin Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin Page 13 f 54

14 Mre details abut the particular weighting factr applied is prvided in every sectin fr every functin. Indeed, it depends n different parameters as track kilmetres fr Infrastructure Managers, tnne kilmetres fr Railway Undertakings and number f wagns fr Wagn Keepers. Fr the remaining functins an average calculatin fr the values supplied by all the cmpanies reprting that they have started freight transprt activities r intent t develp it in the near future is applied. Thereby, the average withut any weighting factr is applied t the fllwing functins: Reference Files Functin: Cmpany Cdes Primary Lcatin Cdes Cmmn Interface Functin Implementatin status in the 1 st half 2015 fr Cmpany Cdes functin In every cuntry, the Average Degree f Implementatin (DI) fr the Cmpany Cdes functin is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in every cuntry withut applying any weighting factr. It means that an arithmetic mean f a series f degree f implementatin fr this functin supplied by the cmpanies that they have started freight transprt activities r intent t develp it in the near future is calculated. It results the value per cuntry and therefre the clur attributed t a particular cuntry. n Average DI = ( i=1 DI(i) ) / n ; Where DI(i) = Degree f Implementatin declared by the cmpany (i) starting freight transprt activities r intending t develp it in the near future, and n = number f cmpanies reprting in a cuntry. Page 14 f 54

15 Figure 3: Cmpany Cdes functin implementatin in January Figure 4: Cmpany Cdes functin implementatin in July We can draw frm the map the cnclusin that in the 1 st half f 2015 almst half Infrastructure Managers and Railway Undertakings have already perfrmed the implementatin f the Cmpany Cdes functin. Indeed, the data stred in the Annex 1 indicates an average level f 61% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr all cmpanies having reprted. Whether these results are cmpared with the data f the 1 st Status Reprt (3), are the new values f the implementatin fr this particular functin lwer? Page 15 f 54

16 Indeed, it can be bserved that the cmplete level f fulfilment fr Cmpany Cdes functin has nly increased by 2 IMs and by 10 RUs cmpared t January this year. Thus, it means that with mre than duble participatin in this query, the cmpletin rate has drpped t 61 % cmpared with the 88% level f fulfilment btained in the 1 st release f the Status Reprt (3). In particular, it can be remarked that the level f Implementatin amng RUs is much lwer than fr IMs. This means that at Eurpean level the deplyment f this functin is still at the Planning Phase in an ptinal reference implementatin; therefre, mst f the cuntries are either in range clured r in light green clured n the map. In every cuntry, the average level f deplyment is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in that cuntry, thus this average defines the clur attributed t a particular cuntry. We can bserve sme differences frm cuntry t cuntry; indeed we can srt the cuntries in the fllwing grups: Cuntries where the cmpanies have declared that the prject has nt been launched: 0% r n data -> Blue clur n the map: Nne. Cuntries where the cmpanies have declared in average that the prject is at the Initiating Phase : 25% -> Red clur n the map: Estnia Finland Greece Ireland Lithuania Luxemburg Sweden United Kingdm Cuntries where the cmpanies have declared in average that the prject is at Planning Phase : 50% -> Orange clur n the map: Prtugal Slvakia Spain Cuntries where the cmpanies have declared in average that the prject is at Executing Phase : 75% -> Light Green clur n the map: Hungary Switzerland Cuntries where the cmpanies have declared in average that the prject is at In Prductin & Mnitr & Cntrl Phase : 100% -> Green clur n the map: Austria Belgium Cratia Czech Republic Denmark Germany Page 16 f 54

17 Italy Latvia Nrway Pland Rmania Slvenia The Netherlands T get mre infrmatin cncerning the cmpanies, this data can be retrieved frm the Annex 1 Cmmn Functins, RU s functins and RU-IM Cmmunicatin Functins Maps + Raw data. Within this raw data prvided by the cmpanies, we have cllected sme bservatins frm the cmpanies. In mst f the cases the cmpany cdes were already in use befre the delivery f the TAF TSI Implementatin Master Plan (1) (January 2013). Indeed, it means an advantage in terms f TAF TSI [2] implementatin fr thse cmpanies having the cdes already included in UIC RICS cde list and inherited by the TAF TSI CRD cmpany cdes repsitry. Other cmpanies reprted that they are nt yet using the cmpany cdes t exchange TAF TSI [2] messages at natinal level, while mst f the cmpanies just use such cdes fr internatinal traffic and IT tls implementing TAF TSI [2] functinality as Train Infrmatin System (TIS) tl hsted by Rail Net Eurpe (RNE).

This means that at Eurpean level this functin is ready t be in prductin fr the exchange f TAF TSI cmpliant messages.

Nevertheless, it cannt be neglected the effrt made by the Railway Undertakings the EU member states t cperate with the Infrastructure Managers t imprve the data quality. Whether it is cmpared the level f fulfilment reprted in July 2015 with the data reprted by the Eurpean rail sectr in January 2015, we can bserve a limited evlutin f the implementatin, frm 86% t 93%, due t the high degree f implementatin already btained at Eurpean level at the beginning f this year. In every cuntry, the average level f deplyment is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in that cuntry, thus this average defines the clur attributed t a particular cuntry.

Within the raw data prvided by the cmpanies, we have cllected sme bservatins frm the cmpanies. Therefre, whether we cnsider the raw data and the bservatins submitted, we can draw the cnclusins that in mst f the cases the primary lcatin cdes are already in use fr internatinal trains and in sme cases fr dmestic trains as well. Althugh the Railway Undertakings stated in their reprt that the publicatin f the Primary Lcatin Cdes is an bligatin fr the Infrastructure Managers, and thereby, it has t be reprted nly by the IMs (decisin adpted in the Telematics Cluster TAF n the 20th f January 2015 in Vienna), the Railway Undertakings are as well wrking tgether with the Infrastructure Managers t imprve the quality data. Furthermre, sme Railway Undertakings pinted ut that the treatment f brder pints is still subject t discussin.

The level f fulfilment reaches the value f 83% fr the Infrastructure Managers, whereas fr the Railway Undertakings the level f accmplishment is 44 %. The average level fr the whle rail sectr is 56% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr all cmpanies having respnded t the survey perfrmed by JSG. This means that at Eurpean level the deplyment f this functin is starting the Executing Phase, therefre, behind scheduled cmpared with the cmmitted schedule by the rail sectr in the TAF TSI Master Plan, 95% degree f implementatin fr the Railway Undertakings and 98% fr the Infrastructure Managers. Whether it is cmpared the level f fulfilment reprted in July 2015 with the data reprted by the Eurpean rail sectr in January 2015, we can bserve a slight decline f the level f implementatin, frm 63% t 56%. This decline in the degree f implementatin is due n the fact that the number f respnders has dubled and many f the new Railway Undertakings jining the TAF TSI implementatin are nt aware f the existence f Cmmn Interface Functin t exchange TAF TSI Cmpliant messages. T get mre infrmatin cncerning the cmpanies, this data can be retrieved frm the Annex 1 Cmmn Functins, RU s functins and RU-IM Cmmunicatin Functins Maps + Raw data. Within this raw data prvided by the cmpanies, we have cllected sme bservatins frm the cmpanies. Sme cmpanies utlined that they dn t envisage the use f Cmmn Interface Functin fr dmestic trains, because they will cntinue using prprietary interfaces fr this traffic. Other Railway Undertakings stated that the implementatin f the Cmmn Interface functin fr Internatinal traffic depends n the deplyment t be dne by the Infrastructure Managers. Mrever, sme cmpanies have reprted as well that they are testing the use f the Cmmn Interface t exchange messages with TIS system hsted by RNE fr internatinal trains and the exchange train running messages fr internatinal traffic. It has been reprted as well that thse cmpanies that they are members f the Cmmn Cmpnents Grup UIC, they have already available a reference implementatin the Cmmn Interface t be used, but nt in peratin.

23 Implementatin status in 1 st half f 2015 fr Rlling Stck Reference Database functin In rder t reflect the real prgress f the implementatin f the Rlling Stck Reference Database functin, an verview at Eurpean Level shwing the infrmatin cncerning the deplyment per cuntry is cnsidered as the mst apprpriate. Mrever, the value which reflects the real implementatin f this functin is the number f wagns stred in the Rlling stck Reference Databases set-up acrss Eurpe t fulfil the requirements quted in the TAF TSI [2] Regulatin. Therefre, it was agreed in the 1 st TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup meeting n 26 February 2015 t use as reference the number f wagns cmpsing the cmplete fleet f wagns in Eurpe split dwn per cuntry. In line with these assumptins, the data has been srted in the fllwing table estimating the percentage f wagns stred in a Rlling Stck Reference Database: Cuntry Valid registratins VVR / Eurstat Wagns In RSRD (Data prvided by RSRD2 - UIP) Percentage Austria % Belgium % Bsnia- Herzegvina - 0% Bulgaria - 0% Cratia 0% Czech Republic % Denmark % Estnia - 0% Finland - 0% Mntenegr 0% Nrway 0% France % Germany % Greece % Hungary % Ireland - 0% Italy % Latvia % Lithuania - 0% Page 23 f 54

Indeed, the average degree f implementatin at Eurpean level is 17,28%. This means that at Eurpean level the deplyment f this functin has reached, in average, the Initiating Phase (Feasibility Study, Business Case r Gathering f Technical and Functinal Requirements). Thus, mst f the cuntries are displayed in average n red r range clur n the map with sme exceptins where the level f implementatin is mre advanced.

The data has been supplied by JSG and the Eurpean assciatin f private wagn keepers, UIP. In particular the data cncerning the deplyment f the RSRD 2 database t fulfil the requirements f the Rlling Stck Reference Database functin are prvided by UIP. Fr these cmpanies using this tl, the data stred in RSRD² is cmplete wagn data sets (mandatry data) therefre, data cmpleteness is 100% ensured fr recrded wagns. These figures d nt cver keepers having indicated that they will use RSRD² but which are currently in a stage f cllecting required wagn data r preparing the interface t RSRD². The degree f implementatin shws a slight grwth cmpared t the 7% quted in the previus reprt issued in April 2015 (1 st Status Implementatin reprt (3)) and a delay in cmparisn with the target Implementatin Milestne fr realisatin f the RSRD functin accrding t the TAF TSI Master Plan (1), Hwever, this des nt mean that n cmpany has implemented this functin, since nly the average data is displayed n the map. Indeed, mre than 34 Eurpean cmpanies have already in place this functinality thrugh the RSRD 2 tl, as it can be realised lking t the data accmpanying the reprt in Annex 1 RU s functins and Cmmn functins Maps + raw data Implementatin status in 1st half f 2015 fr Train Running Infrmatin Functin In rder t have a better view f the real situatin abut the implementatin f the Train Running Infrmatin Functin the 1st half f 2015, the implementatin data will be shwn in different maps fr Railway Undertakings and Infrastructure Managers: One map t shw the evlutin f the implementatin f the Train Running Infrmatin Functin at netwrk level by the Infrastructure Managers (IMs). This infrmatin crrespnds t the data prvided by 23 Infrastructure Managers (almst 90% f the market in terms f track-kms) and the results can be represented at crridr level. A secnd map t shw the deplyment f the Train Running Infrmatin Functin by the Railway Undertakings (RUs) at cuntry level. The values prvided by the Railway Undertakings have been weighted t reflect the market share f these cmpanies in their natinal rail market. This data is based n the respnse prvided, by 56 Railway Undertakings, representing apprximately 80% f the market share fr RUs in terms f tnne-kms. T establish the status regarding the implementatin the infrmatin prvided by the rail cmpanies is cmpared in bth cases with the milestnes prescribed in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1). The weighting factr used fr the RUs is based n the figures stated in the reprt Furth reprt n mnitring develpment in the rail market issued by the Eurpean Cmmissin in June 2014, where Annex 19 prvides the figures cncerning Market shares f railway undertakings ( ). In every cuntry, the Average Degree f Implementatin (DI) fr the Train Running Infrmatin Functin is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in every cuntry applying the abve mentined weighting factr (WF). It means that an arithmetic mean f a series f degree f implementatin fr this functin supplied by the cmpanies that they have started freight transprt activities r intent t develp it in the near future is calculated. It results the value per cuntry and therefre the clur attributed t a particular cuntry. Page 27 f 54

The average weighted level fr the whle rail sectr is 36% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr all cmpanies having reprted. This means that at Eurpean level the deplyment f this functin is reaching in still at the Planning Phase. In every cuntry, the average level f deplyment is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in that cuntry, thus this average defines the clur attributed t a particular cuntry.

Within this raw data prvided by the cmpanies, we have cllected sme bservatins frm the cmpanies. In mst f the cases the cmpanies are testing Train Running functin with pilt prjects. Mrever, the cmpanies agreed in the cntext f the Telematics Cluster TAF n the 1st f July 2015 in Vienna that the stakehlder IM & RU nly reprted the Train Running Infrmatin Message. Nevertheless, the results are quite psitive due t the fact the target Implementatin milestne accrding t the TAF TSI Master Plan is Implementatin status in 1st half f 2015 fr Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin Figure 15: Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin implementatin fr Railway Undertakings in July Page 31 f 54

32 The Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin is a functin t be implemented nly by Railway Undertakings. Therefre, the map shws that in in the 1st half f 2015 the Railway Undertakings have already started the implementatin f the Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin, reaching a degree f implementatin f 11,28% fr the cmpanies having answered t the survey perfrmed by the JSG. This means that at Eurpean level the deplyment f functin is in the Initiating Phase and in line with the target implementatin milestne fr realisatin f the WIMO functin accrding t the TAF TSI Master Plan (1) is T establish the status regarding the implementatin the infrmatin prvided by the rail cmpanies is cmpared in bth cases with the milestnes prescribed in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1). The weighting factr used fr the RUs is based n the figures stated in the reprt Furth reprt n mnitring develpment in the rail market issued by the Eurpean Cmmissin in June 2014, where Annex 19 prvides the figures cncerning Market shares f railway undertakings ( ). In every cuntry, the Average Degree f Implementatin (DI) fr the Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database (WIMO) Functin is calculated frm the data prvided by the cmpanies respnding the JSG survey in every cuntry applying the abve mentined weighting factr (WF). It means that an arithmetic mean f a series f degree f implementatin fr this functin supplied by the cmpanies that they have started freight transprt activities r intent t develp it in the near future is calculated.

34 4.2. Evlutin f RU-IM functins per crridr In line with the agreements reached in the Kick-Off meeting f the TAF TSI Implementatin C-peratin Grup, this reprt cmprises infrmatin cncerning the implementatin f RU-IM Cmmunicatin functins per crridr. In particular, this reprt cntains the degree f implementatin per crridr fr the Train Running Infrmatin Functin. The data displayed n the map fr the crridrs is btained frm the treatment f data regarding the implementatin f Train Running Infrmatin Functin submitted by the Infrastructure Managers. The level f implementatin fr every crridr is the same as the level f deplyment in the cuntry where the crridr is lcated. That means that the degree f implementatin crrespnds t the same level shwn in the map summarising the utcmes f the implementatin fr this particular functin, Train Running Infrmatin Functin, by 1 st half Figure 16: Crridr implementatin f Train Running Infrmatin Functin fr Infrastructure Managers in July Page 34 f 54

35 5. Prgress f the Implementatin f TAF TSI functins frm this reprt cmpared with previus reprts Therefre, at a first glance the target milestnes quted in the Master Plan (1) are met in mst f the cases fr the first functins by 1st half Hwever, the cmparisn with the 1st Status reprt (3) shws that the level f accmplishment has declined fr sme functins in cntradictin with the expectatins: 1st Status Reprt 2nd Status Reprt Primary Lcatin Cdes Functin Cmpany Cdes Functin Cmmn Interface Functin Rlling Stck Reference Database Functin Train Running Infrmatin Functin (IM) Train Running Infrmatin Functin (RU) 86% 88% 63% 7% Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database Functin (RU) 93% 61% 56% 17,28% 59,07% 24,2% 11,28% 5 Thus, it can be bserved three different behaviur: Bearing in mind that the implementatin f the Rlling Stck Reference Database Functin is scheduled by end 2015, it is clear that it can be nly bserved an insufficient prgress fr the implementatin f such a functin. Thereby, the clur assigned is yellw, because the deplyment f this functin is clearly stagnant and an alarm warning shuld be raised in the cntext f the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup. On the ther hand, the evlutin f the Cmpany Cdes Functin and the Cmmn Interface Functin can be partially explained by the increase f the number f reprting cmpanies. Indeed, the decline f the degree f implementatin has drpped fr Cmpany cdes, in particular fr the RUs, while the abslute number f RUs with cmplete implementatin has grwn. That is the argument t attribute t these tw functins a yellw clur, which means in the frame f the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup, that the evlutin f these tw functins shuld be fllwed up. Finally, the cmparisn between the 1 st Status reprt (3) and the 2 nd ne clearly indicates that the evlutin f the Primary Lcatin Cdes, Train Running Infrmatin and Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database functins shws a psitive trend between these tw temprary snap shts. 5 Light red clur indicates a negative trend, while light green ne indicates a psitive ne.

Cnclusins The secnd reprt f t the degree f implementatin f Cmmissin Regulatin (EU) N 1305/2014, TAF TSI [2], shws a psitive evlutin cmpared t the reference baseline, the Master Plan (1) t implement TAF TSI [2] delivered by the sectr in January The TAF TSI Master Plan (1) issued by the rail sectr in January 2013 fresees the fllwing level f realisatin by mid-2015 fr the reprted functins: Reference files ppulatin (Primary Lcatin Cdes Functin and Cmpany Cdes Functin): 98% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr Infrastructure Managers and 95% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr Infrastructure Managers. Cmmn Interface Functin: 98% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr Infrastructure Managers and 95% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level fr Railway Undertakings. Rlling Stck Reference Database Functin: 80% r mre f the respndents (Wagn keepers and Railway Undertakings) indicated a final implementatin in Train Running Infrmatin Functin: 55% degree f implementatin in 2014 and 62% degree f implementatin in 2015 at Eurpean level fr Infrastructure Managers and 30% degree f implementatin in 2014 and 33% degree f implementatin in 2015 at Eurpean level fr Railway Undertakings. Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database Functin: 28% by 2014 fr the Railway Undertakings and 39% by The data reprted in July 2015 shws the different degree f implementatin in average per functin taking int accunt the data prvided by the cmpanies thrugh the JSG r JSG-UIP (Rlling Stck Reference Database Functin): Cmpany Cdes functin: 61% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Primary Lcatin Cdes functin: 93% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Cmmn Interface functin: 56% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Rlling Stck Reference Database functin: 17,28% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Train Running Infrmatin Functin: Fr Infrastructure Managers: 59,07% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Fr Railway Undertakings: 24,02% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database functin: 11,28% degree f implementatin at Eurpean level. The reprt allws us t cnclude that the evlutin f the implementatin f Primary lcatin Cdes and Train Running Infrmatin functins is in line with level required in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1). In particular, it is quite relevant the data supplied by the Infrastructure Managers, because it clearly illustrates us abut their cmmitment t ppulate the primary lcatin central repsitry and t test the exchange f data fr tracking the mvement f the trains, Train Running Infrmatin. The Infrastructure Managers are in fact the drivers fr the deplyment f the Primary Lcatin Cdes and Train Running Infrmatin functins. This psitive evlutin will bring benefits in the further develpment f ther TAF TSI [2] functins as the Service Disruptin Infrmatin and Shipment ETI/ETA functins. Thus, we can state that the basic elements t deply the system are already in place. Page 36 f 54

37 Regarding the Cmpany Cdes functin, we can bserve a slight decline in the level f fulfilment at the same time mre cmpanies are jining the implementatin prcess fr TAF TSI. This is an issue t be treated tgether with the Cmpany cde allcatin bdy, UIC, because it can be cncluded that the newcmers are nt sufficiently aware f the prcess in place t allcate cmpany cdes. The level f implementatin f the Cmmn Interface functin is als slightly declining because f the enlargement f the survey ppulatin. In fact, sme cmpanies declared that they will be able t generate TAF TSI [2] cmpliant messages frm their legacy systems withut further cnversin. Fr this reasn, even if the level f deplyment fr this functin is lwer than that ne fr the Reference Files functins (Primary Lcatin and Cmpany cdes), this is nt perceived as prblem fr the verall deplyment f the TAF TSI system. This utcme can be as well justified either n the lack f knwledge abut the technical requirements t deply the TAF TSI [2] messages set, r because mst f the cmpanies are starting nw t install a lcal instance f this tl. The results fr the Rlling Stck Reference Database functin shws that the sectr has still t dedicate mre resurces t develp this functinality, in particular the Railway Undertakings, wh in mst f cases may act as Wagn Keepers as well. Indeed, althugh similar functinality may be in place fr mst f the Railway Undertakings perating in Eurpe, nly few Railway Undertakings have delivered data fr this particular functin t the JSG-UIP t shw the level f deplyment. Mrever, whether we may cnfrnt these results with the number f wagns stred in the GCU wagn database (with mre than 600,000 wagns currently declared acrss 20 cuntries in Eurpe), we can cnclude that fr the time being almst 20% f the Eurpean wagn fleet is fulfilling the legal requirements requested fr Rlling Stck Reference Database functin trugh the implementatin f RSRD 2 database. Due t the delay bserved fr the deplyment f the Rlling Stck Reference Database functin, the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup has reflected n a set f measures t treat this issue in the cntext f the 2 nd ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup meeting held n 29 th and 30 th September 2015 (4). In particular, a set f criteria fr the wagns nt t be stred in the Rlling Stck Reference Database has been defined: thse wagns wned by IMs, wagns wned by small cmpanies subcntracted t perfrm wrks n the tracks, wagns wned by RUs use this rlling stck nly fr their wn purpse and nt prviding them t third parties, and wagns wned by wagn keepers using this rlling stck nly fr their wn purpse and nt prviding them t third parties. All these wagns can be cnsidered as a small part f the ttal fleet at Eurpean level. Indeed, whether the technical and administrative infrmatin f the rest f the Eurpean wagn s fleet is stred in the Rlling Stck Reference Database in accrdance with the master plan requirements, it culd be stated that the functinality is implemented (in the master plan is quted that 76% f all f the private wagns registered in the GCU database wuld implement the Rlling Stck Reference Database by end 2013). This apprach was endrsed by the NCPs as a pragmatic apprach t be adpted in the cntext f the reprting prcess t clarify wh are intended t implement the Rlling Stck Reference Database. Page 37 f 54

38 Regarding the level f accmplishment declared fr Wagn and Intermdal Unit Operatinal Database functin, we can draw the cnclusin that a delay can be expected cmpared t the cmmitment quted in the TAF TSI Master Plan (1). Therefre, the cmpanies shuld put in place sme measures t mitigate this risk in rder t avid it becmes an issue that it may make difficult the deplyment f further functins as Wagn Mvement. Furthermre, the results btained allw cncluding that mre supprt frm the EU institutins can be prvided t help the cmpanies t implement these functins thrugh different actins as better disseminatin and increase f funding. T prvide an apprpriate respnse t the first actin requested t EU institutins, the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup decided in the 2 nd meeting held n 29 th and 30 th September 2015 (4) t set up a campaign f Reginal Wrkshps acrss Eurpean Member States. This campaign f Reginal Wrkshps aims t better disseminate the cntent f TAF TSI based n daily implementatin made by implementers and rail cmpanies at EU level. It becmes a dedicated activity embedded in the framewrk f the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup. These wrkshps are led by the Natinal Cntact Pints (NCPs) in clse cperatin with ERA. T undertake this activity with the expected results a detailed guideline (Guideline TAF TSI Reginal Wrkshp (5)) has been apprved in the 2 nd meeting (4) afrementined. Furthermre, ne Reginal Wrkshp has been already hsted by the Prtuguese and Spanish NCPs in Madrid in June This initiative was been highly appreciated by the cmpanies attending the event and the NCPs wh cllabrated with ERA fr its rganisatin. Indeed, bth NCPs remarked in the Rail Interperability and Safety Cmmittee (RISC) the success f this actin, where mre than 40 railway cmpanies, including IM and RU, frm Spain and arund 10 frm Prtugal have participated in an active way. Furthermre, they cnsidered this cperatin between ERA and Natinal Authrities as the way t enhance interperability acrss the Eurpean Railway system, prmting the infrmatin and the exchange f views amng the different actrs f the railway sectr. Thereby, it was annunced that the next Reginal Wrkshp t be held in Paris in February 2016 and rganized by Luxemburg NCP, Belgium NCP and France NCP fr the cmpanies perfrming freight transprt activities r intent t develp it in the near future in these cuntries. Cncerning the financial supprt needed t deply TAF TSI [2], during the 2 nd ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup meeting held n 29 th and 30 th September 2015 (4), the Eurpean Cmmissin learnt the Cperatin Grup members abut the existing funding tls at Eurpean level t endrse the effrt made by the cmpanies t implement TAF TSI.

39 7. Prpsals t supprt the Reprting Prcess This reprt cntains the fllwing prpsals endrsed by the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup in the 2 nd meeting held n 29 th and 30 th September 2015 (4): T have a campaign f Reginal Wrkshps under the aegis f the ERA TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup. The campaign will cmprise at least 2 wrkshps per year t be perfrmed in line with the requirements quted in the Guideline TAF TSI Reginal Wrkshp (5). JSG t send earlier an leaving the rail cmpanies mre time t prepare the reprting better and make sure that they had the right staff in place (1 mnth befre the reprting sessin is launched). NCPs t be cntacted by ERA at an earlier stage, s that the cmmunicatin with the rail cmpanies may be better prepared (1 mnth befre the reprting sessin is launched). Cmpanies will be infrmed earlier n when the reprting time will be launched t ensure that they have access and understand the JSG IT tl. 8. Functins t be reprted in the next reprt It has been agreed in the 2 nd TAF TSI Implementatin Cperatin Grup meeting n 29 th and 30 th September 2015 that fr the next meeting, t be held by end February 2016, the data cncerning the implementatin f the fllwing TAF TSI [2] functins has t be delivered: Cnt.: Evlutin f Cmmn Interface Functin. Cnt.: Evlutin f Cmpany Cdes Functin. Cnt.: Evlutin f Lcatin Cdes Functin. Cnt.: Evlutin f RSRD Cdes Functin. Cnt.: Train Running Infrmatin functin, Implementatin target 25% (Initiating Phase). Cnt.: WIMO functin, Implementatin target 50% (Executing Phase). The request t reprt n the evlutin f the implementatin fr the afrementined functins is based n the target implementatin dates quted in the TAF TSI Mater Plan (1). Page 39 f 54
