Abstract
The invention relates to a method for transferring alarm data between a first broken-down train (A) and a control center (2) comprising: evaluating the state of the first train; and then the state of the first train corresponding to a break down; determining if it is possible to establish a first link between the first train and a ground infrastructure (1) connected to the center; if not, establishing a backup radio link between first independent communication means (50) of the first train and second independent communication means (50′) of a second train rolling in the vicinity of the first train; transferring the alarm data concerning the first train and storing the same into storage means of the second train; establishing a second link between the second train and the ground infrastructure and transferring the alarm data concerning the first train from the second train to the center.
