Trai n Info r m a ti o n S ys t e m ( T I S ) What is the Train Information System (TIS)? The Train Information System (TIS) monitors international trains from origin to destination on the involved IMs’ networks. It serves as information source for international performance reports and quality analysis and standardises the exchange of data between different players. TIS also allows the identification of problems due to different national processes (for international trains) and triggers appropriate corrective actions. The relevant data is obtained directly from the Infrastructure Managers’ systems. TIS management

Total Trains in TIS

The application (formerly EUROPTIRAILS) was developed by a consortium of 6 Infrastructure Managers (DB Netz, ÖBB, ProRail, RFF, RFI, and SBB) and co-financed by the European Commission. In 2007 RailNetEurope (RNE) took over the management of TIS, started developing and improving the application and rolling it out. For example, in 2014 TIS Version 6 was introduced, with a refurbished and optimised state-ofthe-art user interface.

TIS functions overview The main goals of the Train Information System (TIS) are to help RUs and Terminals with their own production systems and to support IMs in the field of train run management. Additionally, TIS serves as a message broker for incoming trains. RUs have unlimited access to their own trains and to those operated in cooperation through a data exchange agreement. Terminals only have access to trains running to/from the Terminal if they have a data exchange agreement. Main TIS functions: TIS real-time information is available for desktops and tablets » » Real-time rail traffic data – e.g., contracted timetable, forecast, running advice, delays » » Real-time information is visualised in the TIS graphical interface » » Accessible through standard web browsers TIS reporting function based on Oracle Business Intelligence (BI) » » Predefined reports and graphs (punctuality, delay causes, etc.) » » Customisable reports and graphs » » Information source for international Train Performance Management (TPM) TIS data exchange function » » Raw data exchange based on TAF/TAP TSI messages and since 2012 TAF TSI messages » » Filtering function to select the required information » » TAF TSI pilot for the Common Interface (message exchange via CI) Several ongoing projects depend on the Train Information System (TIS): » » Train Performance Management (TPM) on RFCs – punctuality and data quality reports » » European Performance Regime (EPR) – analysis of delays and their causes » » International Rail Transport Committee (CIT ) – refunding of passenger tickets – information about delays of international passenger trains

TIS data exchange function

TIS data exchange function features » » Raw data exchange based mainly on TAF/TAP messages between IMs and RUs already in place » » Raw data exchange based on TAF TSI* messages (= defines data exchange between IMs and RUs) » » Large and internationally-oriented RUs (such as SBB Cargo International, BLS Cargo, DB Schenker Rail, Eurostar…) have adopted the TIS interface » » Filtering function to select required information based on - - company (IM, RU) - - mutual agreements between companies involved in the train run - - functional criteria (points, incoming trains, outgoing trains, delayed trains, etc.) » » TIS has been recommended by the Sector as testing partner for the implementation of TAF TSI: by sending messages to TIS, you can check if your messages have been correctly implemented in your legacy systems. Benefits of TIS data exchange function TIS is already compliant with the TAF and TAP TSIs; it is viewed as a front-runner system for TAF and TAP. Indeed the TAF standard has been in use in the TIS production environment for every new data exchange since summer 2013. For instance, the average number of TAF/TSI messages in TIS per week in 2014 was: » » outbound: ½ million » » inbound: over 1 million Thus the Rail Sector is already exchanging several million messages within the TAF/TAP TSI framework every month. * Technical Specification for Interoperability relating to Telematics Applications for Freight
