EN 14363

Testing and Acceptance of Railway Vehicle Running Behaviour

EN 14363 is the comprehensive European standard for testing and acceptance of railway vehicles regarding running behaviour, running safety, and stability. This test encompasses track geometry tolerances, vehicle dynamic responses, wheel-rail interaction assessment, and safety limits for train operations on standard and high-speed networks. The standard is mandatory for new vehicle approvals, critical refurbishments, and validation after significant modifications, making it essential for vehicle manufacturers and railway operators throughout Europe. Accreditation is vital to ensure consistent, reliable approval testing that meets the rigorous safety requirements of modern rail transport systems.

What it measures

  • Lateral acceleration and displacement at vehicle body
  • Wheel load variation and unloading
  • Derailment risk coefficients
  • Vehicle response to track irregularities
  • Stability and safety margins
