Zagreb Commuter Rail
Zagreb Commuter Rail is the rapid transit, suburban/commuter railway network that provides mass-transit service in the city of Zagreb, Croatia and its suburbs. This suburban rail system, introduced in 1992 on the route Savski Marof - Zagreb Glavni kolodvor, Zagreb Main Station - Dugo Selo, is operated by Croatian Railways ( hr, Hrvatske željeznice, HŽ) and mainly covers the eastern and western parts of Zagreb, using the M102 railway (Croatia), M102 corridor between Dugo Selo and Zagreb Main Station and M101 railway (Croatia), M101 corridor between Zagreb Main Station and Savski Marof. In 2010 the route was extended by 3 more stations, Sutla, Laduč and Harmica, using the corridor L102 between Savski Marof and Harmica. Since the system started operating, the lines have been serviced by HŽ series 6111 electric multiple unit, EMU's built by Ganz. In 2011, a prototype of a new series of Electric multiple unit, EMU trains for suburban traffic of the City of Zagreb was handed ov ...

Transport In Zagreb
Transport in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, relies on a combination of city-managed mass transit and individual transportation. Mass transit is composed of 19 inner-city tram lines and 120 bus routes, both managed entirely by Zagrebački električni tramvaj. Croatian Railways manages the parallel Zagreb Commuter Rail system. The city is served by the Franjo Tuđman Airport, which carries more than 3,300,000 passengers per year. Road transport Zagreb drivers typically use a wide network of avenues and other arterial streets. Due to the shape of the city, most of the trips done in the city are on the east-west relation, causing high traffic on roads like Vukovar Avenue, Dubrovnik Avenue and Zagrebačka Avenue. The Slavonska Avenue is the longest and one of the most congested roads in Zagreb, connecting the inner city to the A3 highway in the east. Zagreb is a regional highway hub with eight highways and expressways radially leading into the city through the Zagreb bypass. M ...

HŽ Series 6112
HŽ series 6112 is a class of low-floor electrical multiple units manufactured by the Croatian company Končar - Electric Vehicles (), operated by Croatian Railways ( hr, hrvatske željeznice, HŽ) and the Railways of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. A total of 55 units are to be manufactured for Croatian Railways by 2024, with the first units being produced in 2011. The Railways of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina also ordered one intercity train, with no indication of ordering additional units. Croatian Railways operates their fleet on suburban, regional and InterCity routes. The prototype made its first test run on the Zagreb – Dugo Selo line on July 3, 2011. The construction, design and driving characteristics of the low-floor electric train enable optimized operations and improved passenger comfort on regional services depending upon the length of the route. Passenger space is uniform along the entire train, without partitions and stairs. Floor height ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Electric Multiple Unit
An electric multiple unit or EMU is a multiple-unit train consisting of self-propelled carriages using electricity as the motive power. An EMU requires no separate locomotive, as electric traction motors are incorporated within one or a number of the carriages. An EMU is usually formed of two or more semi-permanently coupled carriages, but electrically powered single-unit railcars are also generally classed as EMUs. The great majority of EMUs are passenger trains, but versions also exist for carrying mail. EMUs are popular on commuter and suburban rail networks around the world due to their fast acceleration and pollution-free operation. Being quieter than diesel multiple units (DMUs) and locomotive-hauled trains, EMUs can operate later at night and more frequently without disturbing nearby residents. In addition, tunnel design for EMU trains is simpler as no provision is needed for exhausting fumes, although retrofitting existing limited-clearance tunnels to accommodate the ...

HŽ Series 6111
The HŽ series 6111 is an electric multiple unit used by Croatian Railways ( hr, hrvatske željeznice, HŽ), formerly the class JŽ 441 of ''ŽTP Zagreb'' during the period of Yugoslav Railways. The vehicles were built by Ganz, Hungary (production started in1979). Most of the sets were later modernized by TŽV Gredelj between 2002 and 2015, including both interior and exterior modifications. Between 1992 and mid-2010's, the principal purpose of the units was to serve Zagreb Commuter Rail where they operated exclusively, in addition to some other electrified lines in short to medium distance from Zagreb. Between 2011 and 2024, however, they were entirely replaced by the HŽ 6112 series on Zagreb suburban lines, so remained 6 111 sets were mostly returned to serve some of the lines on other regional routes across the country. After the electric traction system on the section Moravice - Rijeka - Šapjane (border with Slovenia) was changed from 3 kV to 25 kV in 2012, the 6 111 ser ...
