en.Wedoany.com Reported - Hitachi Rail, as a technology partner for German railway infrastructure operator DB InfraGO AG, has completed the upgrade of signaling and train control infrastructure on the Hamburg-Berlin railway line, covering approximately 200 kilometers between Paulinenaue and Schwanheide. The line has now been reopened. This upgrade aims to enhance the overall operational performance and reliability of this major German railway corridor, supporting high-volume passenger and freight traffic.

This large-scale infrastructure project has upgraded the line's train control system to modern technical standards. The new system enables precise control of train operations on this high-utilization corridor, providing a stable operational foundation for long-term management of high traffic volumes. The project involved precise structural planning, on-site implementation, and integration with existing line management processes. Hitachi Rail closely coordinated with the client and project stakeholders to ensure the successful deployment of this central transportation hub system.
The modernization of the Hamburg-Berlin line is part of Germany's national high-performance railway corridor renewal plan, which aligns with the objectives of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). It aims to increase track capacity on key lines and strengthen the railway network's role as a sustainable mode of transport. To meet future operational demands, the project deployed technical solutions including the ESTW L90 (Elektronisches Stellwerk L90, electronic interlocking system) running on modern hardware platforms.
