Hey everyone! Hereby a brand new suggestion with features that can be fantastic to mention very various rail infrastructure as in the UK along the left side Different voltages as ~ 15.000 volt 16 2/3 Hz ~ 25.000 volt 50 Hz = 1500 volt = 3000 volt Safety systems ETCS or TBL - PZB / LZB Stations / Depots L24 Aachen West --------------------------------------------- Montzen L37 + HSL 3 Aachen HBF station ------------------------------------ Hergenrath Chenee Angleur Luik-Guillemins station Iconic places all around - Viaduct van Moresnet - Gemmenicher Tunnel (Vaalserquartier) - Buschtunnel, Ostportal - Hammerbrücke Advantages New' spoorweginfrastructuur cool viaducts High-Speed on another level Short distances steep slopes It involves 2 types of lines that cross the border all from the same point Aachen. L37 for standard passenger traffic including a beautiful section especially for the ICE 3M (HSL 3) Also a very small part of the Montzenroute (L24) only for for carco: Aachen west - Montzen depot Total length would be approx 65 km - 40. miles for both Not the full L37 included Rolling Stock For and to Liège there is already the ICE 3M from Cologne - Aachen, this would simply be a transfer with minor adjustments. There are still several locomotives intended for the L24 from Aachen west, shortened to Montzen depot just back at the Belgian border. one is a serious modified version of the class 66 to the 266 another is a brand new locomotive from the traxx family HLE 28 or numbered as BR 186. Additional options are the VECTRON, in an earlier era even the BR 225 (218), 232 and HLD 55, then we are already back in 2010 or even before. This suggestion is not really focused on that, it is more options back in time. Die entire route within this suggestion offers an ideal opportunity to combine between freight and high-speed in a not too long distance and both with utilized destinations.
True, but then it is best that the entire line 37 is done, otherwise it is a classic motor unit 39-79 on a ten kilometer track surface without stops
Spot on but you went via LGV 3 Aix en la Chappele Liège. For the LGV3 Infrabel uses HLD55/62 rescue locomotives like the Brussels to French border
That would be a nice extension for Aachen - Cologne. Like Aachen Cologne we can deive the Thalys and Regional Belgium Trains. I would buy that for a Dollar .
