The DLR (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt) is widely known as a government German aerospace research organisation with a workforce of about 7,000 - most of them scientists. Over the past ten years security, energy and transport research areas have been added to DLR's range of activities. From 2007 transport research for rail vehicles has engaged the capabilities of several DLR institutes in on theme - the Next Generation Train (NGT). 18 departments of nine institutes are involved in this DLR project until end of 2013. A prolongation until 2018 is being prepared, and depends upon the approval of the Helmholtz- Society which supervises the German research centres.
