The ET 2010 ( abbreviation for E lektro t rubbed dare 2010) is a dual-system - light rail vehicle , which at Bombardier in Bautzen and Vienna for Karlsruhe Transport (VBK) and the Albtal Traffic Company (AVG) is produced. The articulated multiple unit was developed for use by the Karlsruhe and Heilbronn Stadtbahn and has been operating there since the end of 2013.

construction

Mechanical construction

The ET 2010 is an eight-axle, three-part center - floor articulated multiple unit produced by the Canadian wagon manufacturer Bombardier Transportation and belongs to the Flexity Swift family of vehicles . The conventional bogies are primarily equipped with rubber and metal suspension and secondarily with air springs.

The 37-meter-long and 2.65-meter-wide vehicles consist of three car parts that can be walked through via crossings. The entry areas are arranged in the middle floor at a height of 55 cm above the upper edge of the rail. Together with the corresponding platforms, they are barrier-free.

The openings of the eight doors are 2100 mm high and 1300 mm wide.

The railcars are equipped with Scharfenberg couplings and can therefore be coupled to multiple units up to 4 times. They can only be coupled mechanically with the older GT8-100D / 2S-M railcars .

The multiple units have a longitudinal stiffness of 800 kN. You can negotiate changes in inclination with a gradient curve from 470 m.

Electrical equipment

The vehicles have the necessary technical equipment to be able to run under the tram overhead line with 750 volts DC voltage as well as under the railway contact line with 15 kV 16.7 Hz AC voltage . They are driven by four three-phase asynchronous motors, each with an output of 150 kW. The transition between the two power systems takes place automatically and is imperceptible to the passenger. A short section is driven through with momentum without current. The voltage used is indicated to the driver by two indicator lights.

The electrical energy used during acceleration can be partially recovered during braking and fed back into the network.

As a destination indicator one is LED - matrix display used.

inner space

A total of 84 full-size seats and an additional nine folding seats are available in the three multi-purpose areas. In addition (if the folding seats are not in use) there is standing room for 151. The interior is fully air-conditioned , video-monitored with twelve cameras and has a digital passenger information system with two gondolas with four TFT monitors each, a ticket machine and a toilet .

Color scheme and design

The external design of the ET 2010 follows the current color concept of the Albtal-Verkehrs-Gesellschaft and the Verkehrsbetriebe Karlsruhe (VBK). The vehicles are three-colored - with a car body in the color dahlia yellow, a signal red apron and a black window band. The ET 2010 is the first generation of vehicles in this new color concept, which was presented in 2010.

The Berlin design office IFS Design developed the vehicle design. It was designed in compliance with the corporate design of the Karlsruher Verkehrsverbund (KVV).

The car 930 is green and advertises: AVG runs on green electricity.

history

Verkehrsbetriebe Karlsruhe and Albtal-Verkehrs-Gesellschaft ordered 30 railcars for the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn in September 2009 for a total of 129 million euros for delivery from August 2011. An option for a further 45 vehicles by 2020 was agreed. Eight of the vehicles were ordered by VBK for 34.4 million euros; Of the 22 AVG vehicles, 16 were financed by the district of Karlsruhe with 68.7 million euros and 3.3 vehicles with 14.2 million euros by the district of Germersheim and the communities along the Wörth – Germersheim route, making one vehicle 4.3 million Euros. A flood in August 2010, which affected the Bombardier factory premises in Bautzen , postponed the delivery date to February 2012. In May 2012, the first vehicles arrived in Karlsruhe.

After problems with the brakes and the door locking mechanism, the vehicles were only approved for use as trams according to BOStrab by the TÜV a year later, in May 2013 . From July 9, 2013, the vehicles were occasionally used on the S2 line from Rheinstetten to Stutensee . Since the opening of the new line S42 of the Heilbronn Stadtbahn , the vehicles have also been in use there. However, this could not be operated in full until December 2014 because the ET 2010 was not approved by the Federal Railway Authority (EBA) for the northern part of the route, which belongs to DB Netz . As a result, the full commissioning of the S42 planned for December 2013 had to be postponed to December 2014. In June 2014, the EBA granted preliminary approval. From September 2014 to December 2016, some cars on the S9 ran from Bruchsal to Mühlacker . Also since September 2014, the cars have been running on the S51 and S52 lines from Karlsruhe to Germersheim as scheduled . They run on the S4 from Heilbronn to Karlsruhe Hbf and on the S41 / 42 from Heilbronn to Sinsheim and Mosbach . Since the summer of 2015, the vehicles have also been approved for steep-slope operation (necessary for the Baiersbronn – Freudenstadt route) and for quadruple traction, which is not used in normal operation. This means that the vehicles can be used on all AVG lines.

On May 18, 2016, AVG ordered twelve additional multiple units for 59.5 million euros, which were to be delivered between September 2017 and March 2018. On December 13, 2018, another contract was signed for 20 additional multiple units with a volume of 87 million euros and a planned delivery period between May 2020 and March 2021.
