In order to create punctual timetables, it is necessary to accurately calculate and plan out many values, such as running time between stations, headway between trains, train scheduling, rolling stock scheduling, driver and crew scheduling, operation scheduling in stations and depots and capacity of the line/infrastructure. Among these values, shortest running time between stations must be calculated first, as this is the basis of timetabling. This document describes parameters as the requirements for shortest running time calculation that enable railway infrastructure managers, railway operators and related organizations to calculate accurate running time at the stage of setting up a feasible and punctual daily and annual timetable. In addition, this document shows the appropriateness of calculation by verifying the response observed on the calculated shortest running time when the parameter values are changed. This document excludes running time calculation used for purposes other than timetabling.

This document specifies an open, XML-based data format which enables an efficient and unambiguous exchange of static information concerning the operational functionality of the infrastructure, rolling stock and timetable of a track-bound transportation system. The main objective is to enable heterogeneous railway applications to communicate with each other. The purpose of the data format is to facilitate common (integrated) planning of track-bound operations between organizations in the transportation sector. Railway Data Exchange (RailDax) serves as a data exchange format between applications used for railway service planning: connecting information about infrastructure, rolling stock and timetable basics which are necessary for capacity management and timetable planning. This document describes infrastructure and rolling stock from an operational perspective. To achieve this, the infrastructure and rolling stock is described with a clearly defined meaning from an operational perspective. RailDax will typically be used by railway authorities, train operators, infrastructure managers and suppliers to the railway industry for communication between applications serving the use cases listed in Clause 7 in this document.

For the purpose of demonstrating compatibility between rolling stock and axle counter detectors, this document defines the interference limits and evaluation methods to verify rolling stock emissions. Wheel sensors and crossing loops are not covered by this document.
This document gives recommended individual limits to be applied to establish compatibility between RST and all selected types of axle counter detectors, including any covered by national standards.
The list of selected types of axle counters and their limits for compatibility are drawn on the basis of established performance criteria. It is expected that the trend for newly signalled interoperable lines will be fitted with types that meet the compatibility limits published in the TSI CCS Interfaces Document (ERA/ERTMS/033281).
To ensure adequate operational availability, it is essential that the rolling stock complies with the defined limits; otherwise, the established availability of the valid output function of axle counter detectors may be compromised.
NOTE   The influences from metal parts or inductively coupled resonant circuits on the vehicle, eddy current brakes or magnetic brakes, are not covered by this document but are considered on the basis of national technical specifications.
For wheel sensors and wheel detectors in other applications than axle counters but utilizing the same rail sensors and detectors, transient and continuous interference can be considered as equivalent to axle counter detectors or axle counter sensors.

The standard defines requirements to ensure the following.
The driver must be able to observe signals and trackside boards, and they must be observable by the driver from his normal driving position.
Trackside markers, signs and information boards must be designed in such a consistent way to facilitate this.
Issues that must be taken into  account shall include:
•   that they are suitably sited so that train headlights allow the driver to read the information,
•   suitability and intensity of lighting, where required to illuminate the information,
•   where retro-reflectivity is employed, the reflective properties of the material used are in compliance with appropriate specifications and the signs are fabricated so that train front lights easily allow the driver to read the information.

This part of IEC 62625 covers the specification of an on board driving data recording system for the purpose of recording data about the operation of the train. The data refers both to the driver behaviour and the on board systems behaviour to support systematic safety monitoring as a means of preventing incidents and accidents. The data is recorded in a way that is suitable for identifying cause and where possible consequence, such that the data is suitable: - for investigative use in case of accidents and incidents; - to monitor the appropriate actions of drivers. The conformance test procedure will be covered by a future standard in the IEC 62625 series. This standard specifies the requirements for a universal recording system that is applicable to all types of rail vehicles. Requirements and responsibilities for the management and retention of the data to ensure that its integrity is maintained once it has been extracted from the recording device lie outside the scope of this standard. Application of this standard is subsidiary to the responsibility of the transport authority and the safety regulatory authority and to the specific laws and decrees where the ODDRS (on board driving data recording system) is deployed.
