With a height of 40mm (1.6 inch) the new Sencity Rail MIMO low profile 2G/3G/4G antenna from Humer and Suhner is suited to trains running in tunnels with tight gauges and double-decker trains.

Described as robust omni-directional antenna developed for the railway market, it consists of two broadband radiating elements for 2G, 3G and 4G mobile communication in a single compact housing. It supports the frequencies from 790MHz to 2,700MHz and is compatible with all European mobile communication networks.

Retrofit compatibility the company’s Sensity rail antenna allowing system integrators to upgrade the train to MIMO technology.

    In a bid to increase efficiencies and reduce delays for passengers, the UK’s Network Rail is trialling ‘formation flying’ engineering trains to repair and renew the 20,000 miles of railway track it is responsible for maintaining. It says this new approach to engineering could potentially save taxpayer-funded Network Rail US$313,000 (£250,000) per week in costs by allowing trains to run at higher speeds once engineering is complete. The pioneering technique was used successfully at Sandy, Bedfordshire, on

    French transportation group Thales has been awarded a £750 million (US$1,160 million) contract by Transport for London (TfL) to upgrade four London Underground (LU) lines. Under the contract, Thales will modernise the signalling and train control system on the Circle, District, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City lines. Known as the Sub-Surface Lines (SSL), the four lines form a complex network of interlinked routes with numerous junctions which comprise 40 per cent of the LU network and carry up to thre
