First test drives on the eHighway

EHIGHWAY. After the arrival of the first test truck on Monday, June 3, the vehicle was checked at the Bode forwarding company in Reinfeld and the pantograph was adjusted for the test runs. The first test runs on the overhead line system began at about 8 p.m. Monday evening. Currently, mechanical function tests, so-called “looping runs” are being carried out. The trips are necessary to test the interaction of the trucks and the plant and are part of the commissioning procedure.
