© Tokaido Shinkansen The World’s FIRST High-Speed Rail - In operation since 1964 funded by World Bank (*French TGV since 1981, German ICE since 1991) Even now, the Leading High Speed Rail in the World Series 0 (1964) 1 st Generation Series N700 (2007) 5 th Generation
© Key Features of the Tokaido Shinkansen ZERO passenger injuries or fatalities from train accidents - Safety
© Key Features of the Tokaido Shinkansen - Punctuality minutes / train *1 *2 *1 : Including delays due to uncontrollable causes, such as natural disasters *2 : Standard for train delays; JR Central : “delay” = >1 minute, Europe : “delay” = >15 minutes

© 6 Core Concept of Tokaido Shinkansen Safety, Punctuality, Mass Transport and Low energy Consumption are ensured by the Core Concept of Tokaido Shinkansen 1) Crash Avoidance HSR Concept on a Dedicated Track 2) Integrated Management of the HSR System What is “Crash Avoidance HSR Concept”?
© 7 - The use of dedicated tracks exclusively for high- speed passenger rail service - A fail-safe, reliable, proven Automatic Train Control (ATC) Concept of Crash Avoidance on a dedicated track is characterized by two key cornerstones: Crash Avoidance Concept
© 8 Shinkansen - Complete separation from: Freight traffic (pulled by heavy locomotives with lower braking performance) Lower speed passenger traffic (poor running performance) Road traffic Dedicated Tracks for High-Speed Passenger Rail Road Traffic Zero possibility of catastrophic collision with freight, lower speed passenger and road traffic
© Brake Pattern Speed (Running Curve) Preceding Train (ii) Information regarding Location of Preceding Train (iii) On-board ATC System calculates Brake Pattern ATC Ground Facility (iv) When Speed > Brake Pattern Applying Brake Command (i) Detecting the Preceding Train ATC Ground Facility - Eliminates possibility of collision with the preceding train - 100% safety record in Japan for over 48 years Fail-safe, reliable, proven Automatic Train Control (ATC)
© HSR System Integrated Management - Is good hardware a sufficient condition for a safe and reliable HSR system? NO - Accurate operation of HARDWARE requires compatible SOFTWARE. - Integrated Management of Tokaido Shinkansen Operation has produced 48 years of proven success. - Rolling stock - Ground facilities and track - Signal system “ATC” - Electrical facilities - Employee education and skills - Maintenance - Operation management Hardware Software Totally Integrated System 10
