Prototype information

The high-speed traffic with the newly constructed routes rich in tunnels makes a heavy demand on the railroad's safety concepts. The tunnel rescue trains are an essential part of these concepts. These trains are designed to cope with the extraordinary situation of a burning train inside a tunnel. These trains have other tasks in addition to the actual transport of the rescue crews to the accident site and in addition to fighting the fire with the fire extinguishing equipment carried on the rescue train. The presence of smoke and the lack of oxygen in the tunnel mean that the airtight cars in the rescue train must have an independent source of power and air. Locomotive No. 1 is even equipped with a video camera and a thermal image camera. A passenger air lock with protection against smoke enables the evacuation of injured passengers. They are brought into the transport car after they have been attended to medically in the first aid car. If this car is full, the shuttle part of the train, Locomotive 2 and Transport Car 2, uncouple from the rest of the train, the main part of the latter, and proceed to the tunnel portal. The shuttle part then goes back to the main part of the train and couples to it, so that the connections are airtight. Trains of this type are stationed in Kornwestheim, Mannheim, Würzburg, Fulda, Kassel, and Hildesheim to ensure coverage of the newly constructed routes. Each rescue train is ready to go around the clock, as long as passenger trains are underway on the newly constructed routes. All of the equipment on these trains is kept at operating temperature for this purpose; working temperatures are maintained in the Transport and First Aid car, and the fire extinguishing materials are protected against frost.
