Within the challenges highlighted in the IP5 part of the S2R Master Plan, the following specific challenges should be addressed by the proposal in answer to this topics:

1. Future freight locomotives must reach the maximum possible energy efficiency - alone, in the train consist, or within a fleet - in order to improve the cost-competitiveness of rail freight. Also they need to serve complex logistics concepts.

2. Hybridization of the legacy shunting fleets should be sought in order to quickly react to the competitive pressure from other modes, by reducing lifecycle cost and defending rail freight's position as the most environmentally friendly mode of transport.

3. The realisation of an optimised network management is expected to lead to centralized information about the traffic conditions, available capacity, train composition and infrastructure characteristics.

4. Design, build and test a novel terminal with Intelligent Video Gate technology to optimize train in- and outbound detection, including automatic identification of train consist and characteristics (length, loading gauge, structural data, etc.).

5. Reduce maintenance cost and hazard probability associated to the bogie, for bogies of freight wagons existing in IP5, in practical tests.
