THE FUTURE OF RAILWAY INTEROPERABILITY:

25 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND INNOVATIVE STRATEGIES WITH TSI

TOPICS

  • next steps of optimization of ECTS, optimization of radio communication
  • Interoperability throughout different countries
  • night trains, train operation
  • how to meet the expectation for sustainability
  • solutions to increase capacity:
    • build new lines
    • add a second track
    • double decker trains
    • improve signalling systems
    • ERTMS, ECTS
    • Night trains

We invite you to participate in the RAILWAY FORUM 2024 which is organized by the Union of European Railway Engineer Associations (UEEIV) in cooperation with our Bulgarian Member Associations, the Scientific and Technical Union for Transport (WTVV) and the National Guild Society of Railway Track Engineers (NGSRTE).

We have deliberately chosen Sofia as a location to widen our horizon and improve international networking.

The topic is very relevant on a European level: The future of Railway Interoperability.

Working together on commons solutions for all European countries will be the key to meet the young generations wish for sustainable travel throughout Europe and there is still a long way to go.

As modern Railway engineers we have a great responsibility to make the expansion of the route network and interoperability possible with our technical innovations and solutions.

In the UEEIV, we have accepted this challenge and made it our goal to move a step forward at the Railway Forum 2024.

We will give you an overview of what has been done so far in the past decades to improve the interoperability and what future strategies may be.

You are invited you to take part in this task and present your experiences, views and innovative strategies at the Railway Forum 2024.

We are looking forward to your participation!
