Trainguard Zub 222c automatic train control system
Cities are becoming increasingly larger and more complex. This also imposes increased requirements on mass transit
systems. Their operators have to cope with rapidly growing traffic flows and passengers‘ rising expectations. Their success
is measured against factors such as safety, punctuality, convenience and environmental friendliness. Siemens‘ intelligent
and future-oriented mass transit concepts support operators in successfully meeting these challenges.

We regard our customers as partners who we support through our work in sustainably developing their urban environment
and making their public mass transit just as efficient and effective. They thus boost their passengers‘ quality of life and the
attractiveness of their city as a business location.
