Etihad railway

New technology:

 

In the wild range the technology has been develop very much in the material which use to build the trains or on the railways. However he trains which is transport the passenger, has a high technology to handle the high speed and to be safely to use. For example, in Japan they used a high technology to build their train which can move with very high speed reaching to 200Km/h, it’s using the electricity. The electricity line built to be beside the railway line. However, for the Etihad railways there is not very much technology use because it’s a trains will carry the material and its will be used on industry so no need to use a high technology, but in farther stage when the railways will take passenger there will be used for the technology to use the electrical energy and to provide a safety train.

 

Composition & production

Composition

 

The railway steel is built in Italy and Istria said (Goryl, 2012), the concrete sleeper which carry the steel railways made here in the UAE in al Marfa factory, which proved the concrete sleeper in shorter time and its closer to the site. Also the ties which is connected the steel bars to the concrete sleeper is made from steel and it’s painted to avoid the rust and that’s the railway composition. However the composition of the train is very simple at the first stage it’s only going to include the locomotive cart and the container cart, the reason of this because in the first stage on the railways which will establish in 2013 will only use for industry business. The contactor for build the railways is three contractors two from Italy, and one from India.     

 

Production:

 

                The main production and what is expected is to carry the carry the high tons of material instead of using the heavy tracks in the road and the high ways. And that will help to keep the highways safely and not congest especially the outside highways. “On the 2016 we will start to use the railway to transport the human passenger” said (Goryl, 2012). The green line which they called it will connect Shah which is located in Muzzarah in Madent Zayed to Habshan, then from the main port in the country such as Zayed port, Khalifa Port and Jabal Ali Port to the industry area. Also it will proved a useful connected line between the country and Saudi Arabia through al Gaweefat and between Oman through AL Ain. 

Industry:

The railways will be used significantly to carry the material from and to the factories in the country or outside the country to Saudi Arabia or to Oman. In first stage the railway will transport the sulfate from the factory in Shah to Hubshan and this is for ADONC Company. Then after building the railways to the city and ports its will carry any material that will saved in big container and in huge size. “The heavy freight trains will transport a range of goods such as hydrocarbons, aluminums, rocks, cement and iron”. (Railway Technology, 2012).
