Kurzfassung englisch:
Because of ecological and economical reasons there are numerous co-operations between airlines and railways, especially in replacing short-distance feeder flights by trains. However, these co-operations are not by far in a position to tap the full passenger potential because they are in many cases not sufficiently attractive. For example, currently there is no possibility to check in and drop off luggage during the time of rail journeys to the airport. For 80% of passenger luggage transport is the main criteria not to choose the train. Missing service features related to luggage transport lead to the situation that a big proportion of the air passengers travel to the airport by car or prefer inland feeder flights. For approx. 75% of air passengers an interesting and important aspect would be the possibility to check in luggage in the airport transfer train. The realization of this luggage deposit system would exert its influence on the modal-split-behaviour of and be an important attraction to accept train in long-distance traffic as an airport transfer. The objective of the project Terminal On Rail is to develop an overall airport transfer system for railway long-distance traffic, under the consideration of all technical-logistical challenges with regard to the possible luggage drop off in train and interfaces to the airport. This facilitates an efficient use of the travel time and ensures obtaining definitely attractive airport transfer trains. As outcome of the project the paper will focus on passenger requirements for airport feeder trains and will give an overview of options for baggage drop off inside the train during the train ride.
