Study the performances of bogie and track, capable of expecting a completely stable moving characteristic in the interaction for high-speed running.
Moreover, study the measures required for high-speed running, such as alignment in passing station, turnout structure and solve problems.
(c) Speedup in elevated railway section
When the section in the urban area of Bangkok is elevated, Northern Line is also elevated. The present low-speed operation due to level crossings and entrance from areas along a railway is improved and time reduction of approx. 20 min can be expected.
(3) Speedup and improvement of transport in line section
In the case of this improvement of transport, it is purposed first of all to greatly reduce the time in transport by the daytime limited express. The time reduction is a subject always requested for passenger transport and moreover, transport service is greatly improved in many other respects by the effort for realizing the time reduction.
It is considered to be effective to progress transport improvement with time reduction for each line section, utilizing the increased transport capacity currently underway.
Increased traffic and improved transport efficiency are expected to contribute to role of the railway.
