IC 2020: 8 - 14 May 2019 Testing phase

From 8 to 14 May 2019, modernised cars carried out test runs from
Olten to Eastern Switzerland, Central Switzerland and
French-speaking Switzerland.



These test runs made it possible to carry out a vast battery of
tests including the new intelligent retractable step equipping the
cars of type AD. The smart retractable step covers the space
between the platform edge and the vehicle to allow autonomous
access to the vehicle as required by the Equality Act for Persons
with Disabilities. Controls were carried out in different stations,
directly on the platforms, to ensure that all standards are
respected.



Other tests were carried out on newly-installed systems and on
modernised systems:

- the operation of the new fire detection system was tested both in
the passenger compartment and in the toilets;

- the transmission of the alarm to train support personnel and the
locomotive engineer;

- the new customer information system;

- the new window glazing allowing mobile phone signal to pass.
