Alstom has signed an agreement to equip one of DB Cargo’s freight locomotives with ETCS signaling technology. As part of this project, subsidised by the CEF and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, a DE6400 locomotive will be equipped with Atlas ETCS Baseline 3 Release 2. This new signaling technology will support freight traffic between the Netherlands and Belgium as soon as the new timetable comes into effect (2024/2025 in Belgium and 2026/2027 in the Netherlands).
