Abstract:This report is an addendum to a report (No. DOT-VNTSC-RR393-PM-93-1) prepared in April
1993 describing the operations witnessed and the relevant information obtained by nine members
of the FRA/Volpe Center High Speed Guided Ground Transportation Safety Task Force during
9 weeks of observation of maglev developmental certification testing at the TVE Transrapid Test
Facility at Emsland, Germany. Those observations were part of an extensive review of the
German safety certification process being applied to the Transrapid (TR) system for application
in Germany.
Additional certification testing was performed during the spring of 1993. Three members of the
Task Force visited the TVE Test Facility to witness operations and testing. This addendum
describes the operations witnessed and the relevant information obtained during each of the
three visits: April 5 to 7, April 27 to 30, and June 2 to 4.
