A method for safely determining a position information of a train (58) on a track, wherein an on-board system (1) of the train (58) identifies trackside structures, is characterized in that the trackside structures comprise passive trackside structures (56, 56a-56e) which are passive in their identification by the on-board system (1), wherein the on-board system (1) determines appearance characteristics, current distances (93) relative to the train (58) and current angular positions (94, 95) relative to the train (58) of the passive trackside structures. The inventive method allows determining a position information of a train, which is less cumbersome and less expensive in installation and operation, however provides and equivalent level of safety compared to state of the art train positioning methods. 0 0u 4- I 0 0f C', o ,-
