Siemens and Deutsche Bahn autonomous train demonstrations

Overview

Siemens Mobility and Deutsche Bahn, in collaboration with various industry and scientific partners, have demonstrated the technical feasibility of fully automated train operations (GoA4) on open railway networks through the ‘Automated Train’ project.

During these demonstrations, a Siemens Mireo train successfully performed driverless tasks, including moving from a depot to a starting station, conducting self-tests, and preparing for departure without onboard personnel. The system utilizes autonomous control software and sensor-based detection to independently identify and react to obstacles in its environment. This milestone is intended to support the standardization of automated rail systems to improve operational flexibility, safety, and efficiency.
