SelTrac™ Communications-Based Train Control
Products & Services
Information
Hitachi Rail SelTrac™ product is a robust and modular signalling
solution that allows urban rail operators to increase performance
and capacity, whilst moving people safely. It provides a moving block
technology for driverless operation that increases their revenue
potential.
Unlike, other solutions, SelTrac™ does not require an additional
fallback system and its integrated interlocking requires minimal
equipment, leading to reduced life cycle costs. It can deliver revenue
headways as low as sixty seconds, the shortest in the industry.
With the most extensive brownfield experience, Hitachi Rail is the
global leader for re-signalling projects. SelTrac™ has developed a
unique continuous product life cycle extension approach where all
its subsystems can be maintained and extended forever.
