VIDEO | Aberație feroviară, corectată: Trenurile moderne nu mai încetinesc forțat la 40 km/h, după o regulă din 1975, acolo unde locomotivele vechi trec cu viteză maximă
Pro Infrastructură highlights the correction of a railway anomaly causing modern trains to slow down to 40 km/h due to an outdated rule from 1975. This issue affects newer trains like Desiro and Alstom Traxx, which are forced to brake unnecessarily in areas where older trains can travel faster. The Ministry of Transport is working on a solution to eliminate this technical anomaly, allowing modern trains to operate at higher speeds without unnecessary braking. The association emphasizes that this problem is widespread across various key locations, leading to significant delays and increased energy consumption. Changes are being tested to improve the situation, but full implementation of the European ETCS system is still years away.
