Overview

EN 61375-2-3:2015/A11:2017 is a CENELEC amendment to the European standard for the Train Communication Network (TCN) - Part 2-3: TCN communication profile. Approved in February 2017, this amendment adds Annex ZZ, documenting the relationship between the TCN communication profile and the Essential Requirements of EU Directive 2008/57/EC (Rail Systems: Interoperability). The amendment supports citation in the Official Journal of the European Union and helps establish presumption of conformity with relevant TSIs when implemented.

Key facts:

• Title: Electronic railway equipment - Train communication network (TCN) - Part 2-3: TCN communication profile (amendment A11)
• Prepared by: CLC/TC 9X (Electrical and electronic applications for railways)
• Amendment approved: 2017-02-01; national implementation deadline (dop): 2018-02-01
• Scope item: publication of Annex ZZ for submission to the EC under Directive 2008/57/EC
• Legacy conversion noted (2021) by DCLab NISOSTS

Key Topics

This amendment and the underlying Part 2-3 standard focus on:

• TCN communication profile: the communication framework for digital onboard train networks (general profile and interoperability aspects)
• On-board interfaces and interoperability between consist units and subsystems
• Reliability, availability and safety attributes as applied to onboard communications
• Documentation and system descriptions for computerized on-board systems
• Telematics and passenger services communications implications (e.g., passenger alarms, information devices, external doors)
• Mapping to EU requirements: Annex ZZ links clauses of EN 61375-2-3 to RST LOC&PAS TSI and TAP TSI essential requirements

(Technical protocol details and message formats are defined in the main EN 61375-2-3 text; this amendment primarily addresses regulatory alignment via Annex ZZ.)

Applications

EN 61375-2-3:2015/A11:2017 is directly relevant to:

• Rolling stock manufacturers and system integrators implementing the Train Communication Network
• On-board electronics and telematics designers (passenger information systems, alarms, door control interfaces)
• Railway certification and conformity assessment bodies verifying compliance with Directive 2008/57/EC and associated TSIs
• Railway operators and maintenance organizations that specify interoperable communication profiles across fleets

The standard supports interoperable digital communication within trainsets, improving compatibility between vehicles and enabling compliance with EU interoperability rules.
