MAINTENANCE POLICY FOR HIGH SPEED ROLLING STOCK AND THE METHODS EMPLOYED

LA POLITIQUE D'ENTRETIEN DES RAMES A GRAND VITESSE ET SES MOYENS

Although the rolling stock has yet to be built, it is already essential to make a provisional inventory of maintenance work and take the necessary measures so that the staff responsible will have everything they require by October 1981. The aim of the study has therefore been to extrapolate the results already known for 200 km/h operation and take account of the specific features of the operation of the new line. Maintenance shops are planned at Bischheim, an inspection depot at Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, and checking sheds at the present Paris South-East depot. Some special problems have been studied such as the reprofiling of wheels. An inventory of work to be done has thus been made during 1975 with the various tasks involved divided among the three depots. Provision must therefore be made for changes in the workload of the three depots from their present situation to their future situation when 80 trainsets will have been delivered by July 1982.
