The Tramlink is a product group of five and seven-part tram vehicles from the manufacturer Stadler Rail Valencia in multi-articulated design. The Tramlink was brought onto the market by the company Vossloh , which sold the production of rail vehicles in Valencia, Spain, to Stadler Rail in 2016.

Operator and areas of application

Rostock tram

Tramlink 6N2 of the Rostock tram

Between 2011 and 2014, received tram Rostock from Vossloh Kiepe thirteen vehicles in facility design , which gradually since december 2014 Tatra instinctual and the low-floor sidecar replaced. The Rostock Tramlink have two special features. The 32 m long and 2.65 m wide vehicles have moved in at the entry height to 2.3 m. This allows the existing infrastructure such as B. paving stones can continue to be used without modifications. High-performance capacitors , so-called super capacitors (supercap), are integrated in the vehicle roof. They store the electrical energy gained during braking, which can then be used again for acceleration and for heating and air conditioning. It is hoped that this will result in a significantly lower overall energy requirement.

Tramlink V3 as a Traunseetram in Gmunden

Test drives with a Combino the tram Nordhausen and a longer mietweisen generally use of City runners of public transportation services ordered Stern & Hafferl through a tender in January 2014. Vossloh Kiepe eleven bidirectional vehicles of the type Tramlink V3 for use on the Traunseebahn and Attergaubahn . They were produced in Vossloh Kiepe's Spanish plant in Valencia . So that the multiple units can run on the Traunseebahn and the Gmunden tram , they are approved in accordance with the Railway Act and the Tram Ordinance. Delivery started in December 2015. The cars have been in use on the Traunseebahn as planned since March 2016. On September 1, 2018, the Traunseebahn was connected to the Gmunden tram to the Traunseetram and operated by Stern & Hafferl tramlink trains.

Baixada Santista light rail

Tramlink V4 in Santos ( Baixada Santista light rail )

Tramlink light rail vehicles have been in operation in the Baixada Santista metropolitan region in Brazil since 2015 . The bidirectional vehicles ordered at the end of 2012 are also equipped with accumulators for operation on an overhead line section in the city center of Santos .

Lugano – Ponte Tresa

In the summer of 2018, Ferrovie Luganesi decided to buy nine Tramlink trains for almost 50 million francs. The contract includes an option for three more vehicles. The seven-part trains will be manufactured in the Altenrhein plant and will replace the Be 4/12 from 1978 on the Lugano-Ponte-Tresa-Bahn (FLP) from 2020 .

Erfurt

The Erfurt public transport company ordered 14 Tramlink trams for the Erfurt tram in 2018 . The trains should be 42 meters long and be able to transport 248 people. They will be used from 2020; the acquisition costs are 56 million euros. In addition to Stadler Valencia, production takes place at Stadler Pankow (Berlin).

Waldenburgerbahn and Limmattalbahn

In autumn 2018, the joint order for 18 Tramlink type tramliners from Baselland Transports (BLT) and Aargau Verkehrs (AVA) for CHF 103 million was announced. The trains with a maximum speed of 80 km / h will be used on the Waldenburgerbahn (WB) and the newly built Limmattalbahn from the end of 2022 . The WB as the only railway with a gauge of 750 mm will be converted to meter gauge beforehand . The joint order of the two railways enables considerable savings in vehicle procurement and maintenance. On the WB, the 45-meter-long multiple units will run in double traction during rush hour. Although the Limmattalbahn operated by the Aargau-Verkehr subsidiary BDWM Transport is not equipped with a train control system, their Tramlink will receive the ZSI-127 train control system for the transfer to the BDWM workshop in Bremgarten .

Milan

In July 2019, Stadler won a tender for up to 80 vehicles for the Milan tram . The initial order should include 30 vehicles.

Bern

In September 2019, Bernmobil initially ordered 27 new Tramlink vehicles, which are to be delivered from 2023. The contract was signed in December 2019.

augsburg

In October 2019, Stadler Rail and Stadtwerke Augsburg announced the order for 11 trams. According to the contract, the seven-part multi-articulated one-way vehicles are to be used from 2022. The fully low-floor, barrier-free vehicles are 42 meters long and offer space for 231 passengers, 86 of whom are seated.

Jena

In August 2020, Stadtwerke Jena announced an order for 24 tram cars with an option for 19 more. According to the contract, the 16 seven- and 8 five-part multi-articulated trolleys are to be used from 2023. The consistently low-floor units are 42 or 32 meters long and offer space for 234 or 174 passengers, 75 or 46 of them on seats. The manufacturer will also maintain the car for 24 years, and an option to extend it by eight years has also been agreed

technical description

Interior ...
... and the driver's cab of a tram link from Stern & Hafferl
Interior of a tram link of the Santos light rail. A conventional bogie wheelset is located under the eight seats .

Tramlink tram cars are a single or bi-directional vehicles with different box widths for standard gauge , narrow gauge and for a track width of 900 mm.

Mechanical part

The five or seven-part multi-articulated carriages consist of the driven end modules and one or two middle modules with a carriage, each of which is connected to a carriage body without carriage. Both the drive bogies of the end modules and the running bogies of the middle modules are provided with continuous wheel sets . One of the two middle modules is driven in the seven-dividers of the Lugano-Ponte-Tresa-Bahn . The conventional bogies with two-stage rubber roller and coil suspension , rubber-sprung wheel tires and relatively large wheel diameters ensure good running properties. Despite the bogies, the vehicles have no steps and are consistently low-floor . The two traction motors of the bogies each protrude under a seating group in the passenger compartment. There are a total of 16 seats above each bogie. The car bodies are made entirely of stainless steel and meet the crash standard DIN EN 15227 .

Drive and brakes

The power converters and the auxiliary converters are supplied directly from the overhead line , with filters consisting of inductors and capacitors smoothing the input voltage. Each rotary actuator has its own converter to supply the two three-phase asynchronous motors . Their stators are equipped with water cooling . In recuperation braking mode , the converter generates direct current that is fed back into the catenary network. During braking, all consumers in the train are also supplied with braking energy. If the overhead line network does not have the capacity to absorb, the electric brake works as a resistance brake . The drive control reacts automatically to the skidding and sliding of the drive wheel sets. A large part of the electrical equipment including the separately ventilated braking resistors and the cooling devices for the air conditioning are located on the roof. In addition to the electric brake, the multiple units have a hydraulic spring-loaded brake , which is used as a holding brake . In an emergency, the magnetic rail brakes in every bogie can be triggered.
