Railway noise reduction at the source is the preferred way indicated by the European legislator, although certainly the hardest to be obtained from an engineering point of view.

Abstract

Railway noise reduction at the source is the preferred way indicated by the European legislator, although certainly the hardest to be obtained from an engineering point of view. A cost-benefit analysis of the available solutions should drive the political decisions. This paper describes the impact of a specific low noise wheel, with noise reduction effects proven in normal service, on the Life-Cycle Cost of different types of vehicles. The analysis is conducted on several types of passenger rolling stock, i.e. high speed trains, both conventional and tilting, Electrical and Diesel Multiple Units.
