The European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS) is a European system to create a ‘digital railway’.


The UK government has announced that UK citizens are to benefit from a digital railway by increasing Capacity, reducing Costs, reducing Carbon emissions and increasing Customer satisfaction, otherwise known as ‘the four Cs’.

ETRMS is a major project but is only part of the digitalization process. The UK railway network already has a digital communications system – GSM-R. The second part of the system, namely, the European Train Control System (ETCS) will see the replacement of traditional railway signalling with an electronic equivalent where train movements will be signalled via GSM-R.

This self-paced on-demand distance learning course features illustrated course books, videos, tests and full tutor support.

Delegates attending this course should be familiar with the principles of GSM-R networks.

This three day course is aimed at radio engineers.

The Netherlands, which is also informally known as Holland, is a country located in Northwestern Europe with overseas territories in the Caribbean. The four largest cities are Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht. Amsterdam is the country's most populous city and the nominal capital, while The Hague holds the seat of the States General, Cabinet and Supreme Court. Rotterdam is the second largest city and has the largest port in Europe. The importance of the Netherlands for Europe is so huge that it cannot be ignored. The country is a founding member of the European Union, Eurozone, G10, NATO, OECD, and WTO.

The tourist attractions of the Netherlands are windmills, canals, and tulips. Canals are an important part of Amsterdam's cityscape and Keukenhof, the Garden of Europe, is the largest public garden in the world. The National Museum Rijksmuseum and the Anne Frank House are must-see places in the Netherlands.
