EXPERTISE

Proven Expertise in Railway Warning Horns

For more than 30 years, MAS Ferroviaire has designed and manufactured TGV horns and train warning horns for railway networks in France and internationally.

Our activity is straightforward to define but demanding to master: designing reliable railway warning horns capable of long-term operation in harsh environments, while fully complying with railway acoustic and regulatory requirements.

Our equipment is used on passenger trains, high-speed trains, locomotives, as well as railway maintenance and work vehicles.

Railway applications involve highly specific constraints. A TGV horn or train warning horn is not simply about producing sound: it must be instantly recognisable, sufficiently powerful, stable over time, and fully compliant with railway safety requirements.

At MAS Ferroviaire, every warning horn is designed with full consideration of:

• railway-specific acoustic constraints
• climatic and vibration conditions
• railway operators’ technical requirements
• European and international standards

Real TGV Horns: Safety, Power and Acoustic Control

TGV horns play a critical role in railway safety. They warn of the approach of high-speed trains in sensitive areas such as level crossings, work sites and urban environments.

Our TGV railway horns are developed to guarantee:

• sound output compliant with current standards
• excellent audibility and recognition
• perfect repeatability of the acoustic signal
• proven long-term reliability

Each horn is individually adjusted and tested to ensure consistent performance once installed on rolling stock.
