Siegmann Helge Stuhr, 2010-05-26: Studies for the future Rail Freight Wagon FCR: Conclusion The project FCR (2007-2008) showed the basic technical and economic feasibility Open points: Safe selection and deselection of the FCR-wagons by radio remote control Homologation (for private sidings or main line?) Qualification of the personnel for moving FCR-Wagons via radio remote control A new project consortium strives for the funding of a second project with the aim of solving the open points and of building and testing prototypes
