3. Compatibility of the railway system

Directive 2008/57/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the interoperability of the rail system within the Community (Recast) (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

The quality of rail services in Europe depends, inter alia, on excellent compatibility between the characteristics of the network (in the broadest sense, i.e. the fixed parts of all the subsystems concerned) and those of the vehicles (including the onboard components of all the subsystems concerned). Performance levels, safety, quality of service and cost depend upon that compatibility.
