The technical-operational analysis of train traffic is done according to the provisions of the Operational Procedure - the analysis of the execution of the traffic schedule - from the Operational Procedures.

Disturbances

Currently, on the CFR network, the operational procedure "Management of situations in which the train traffic is disrupted" is being approved and implemented. Until the implementation of the procedure for the recovery of the train traffic affected by disruptions of the timetable, the provisions of the Regulation for the train traffic and the shunting of railway vehicles No. 005/2005 and of the Signalling Regulation No. 004/2006. CFR applies the provisions of the manual issued by RNE (Rail Net Europe) regarding the Management of the situations in which international train traffic is disrupted (RNE ICM Handbook). Mainly, the provisions of the handbook are: For traffic disruptions affecting international trains, longer than 3 days with a high impact on international traffic, CFR will take into account the International Contingency Management Handbook (ICM) when cooperating with other infrastructure managers. Rail freight corridors act as facilitators in the disruption management and communication process. They

developed and published re-routing presentations and operational scenarios together with member infrastructure managers. A reference to the re-routing overview and scenarios can also be found in section 4 of the Corridor Information Document (see Chapter 1.7.1 of this document). In urgent cases, as a result of which the infrastructure is temporarily unusable, the allocated paths can be cancelled without notice, for the time necessary to restore traffic. CFR can request the RU to make available to it the means that it considers to be the most appropriate for the purpose of restoring the normal situation as soon as possible, under the conditions established in the access contract and in the regulations in force. In such cases, CFR establishes together with the involved RUs alternative traffic routes (when this is possible). In the event of disruptions to the train traffic, caused by a technical problem, a railway accident, unfavourable weather conditions or another unforeseeable situation, CFR is empowered to take all necessary measures to restore the normal situation. At the same time, it notifies the interested bodies.

In case the accidents have significant consequences, which require the action of several bodies, the convention on "Unitary management of forces participating in the intervention in the event of railway accidents" applies (Annex 32). RUs that are not signatories of the mentioned convention, will apply the specific provisions of the RUs that are signatories thereof. The notification and investigation of railway accidents and incidents is done in accordance with the Regulation on the investigation of accidents and incidents, on the development and improvement of railway safety on railways approved by GD No. 117/2010.

6.4       Tools for Train Information and Monitoring
  CFR has an integrated IT system called IRIS. A component of the IRIS system is the FOCUS application, which
  allows monitoring the train traffic on the CFR network. The IRIS IT system is developed and maintained by
  SC "Informatica Feroviara" SA, a branch specialized in IT services of CFR.
