KeTech is selected by Siemens to deliver a fully integrated Passenger Information System on East Midlands Railway’s Class 360 fleet!

KeTech is thrilled to share that it has been chosen by Siemens Mobility for a high-profile UK rail project; implementation of a fully integrated Passenger Information System on East Midlands Railway Class 360 fleet. As part of a comprehensive refurbishment, this collaboration will revolutionise the travel experience for almost 600,000 passengers a year that already travel on this fleet.

Passengers can look forward to real-time, contextually relevant journey information, enhancing their overall travel experience – even during disruption. KeTech is delivering cutting-edge software that manages all aspects of customer information delivery throughout the trains, in a completely joined-up manner – including via four large information screens per coach, integrated automated PA system and new colour HD ceiling displays.

KeTech being selected for this project underscores its expertise in on-train systems integration, including Siemens’ new train IT architecture – which is also being delivered on this fleet. Siemens and EMR will benefit from KeTech’s forward-thinking Passenger Information System, unwavering commitment to cyber security, and track record of delivering high-quality solutions on time.

Stay tuned for an unparalleled passenger experience on EMR Connect services, operated by the Class 360 fleet!

An Interview With Paul Warren – KeTech Sales Director

The answer is simple, although the background is technical and quite complex. Our systems are different because they have been engineered to actually create the real-time information that is updated and presented dynamically to the traveller (operators and staff). At best, competitor systems might be able to ‘take a feed’ from an operator or local authority, whereas our system harnesses data from multiple sources to create a dynamic and situationally aware provision of highly accurate information. It’s because we have decades of experience providing systems to rail operators and have accurate train prediction algorithms that we can do this.
