Managing Director & Key Account Manager, Hitachi Rail Thailand
In response to growing demands, Thailand's rail network is modernizing its rolling stock with advanced onboard systems to improve service quality. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to modernize the country's rail infrastructure and support sustainable transport.
Hitachi Rail installed its onboard European Train Control System (ETCS) on 50 new locomotives from CRRC for the State Railway of Thailand (SRT). This project included modular product designs for flexible integration and future upgrades to higher ETCS levels.
Our technology will enable rail capacity to be increased safely and reliably. The modular design of our ETCS onboard system allows for easy upgrades, ensuring long-term sustainability and adaptability. This project has positioned Hitachi Rail as a key player in Thailand's rail modernization.
