Novel traction systems for sustainable railway futures in LICs: Capability Analysis Report

This report presents the results of data gathering for several representative routes in low—income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. It builds on the results of route mapping, and the development of a Single Train Simulator tool with a Graphical User Interface, which was used to establish energy and fuel requirements for each combination of route and vehicle. This will be used to inform the next stage of designing vehicle architecture.
