Manifesto for the UIC centenary
Manifesto for the UIC centenary - Rail solutions for a better future
This document, which is the joint result of the work of the UIC members in the different working groups, presents the development of concrete solutions taking into account the significant role of the railways and the need to:
With this Manifesto, UIC aims to show that the railways must act quickly in view of the urgency of the situation, must act in a coordinated manner between partners and must propose solutions that already exist or can be implemented quickly.
- transform cities and connect communities;
- use clean energy, technology and innovation;
- promote intermodality and seamless connections;
- transform the customer experience.

UIC Technical Solutions for the operational railway
UIC Technical Solutions for the operational railway
As the main technical body serving not only railway operators, but the entire community of railway stakeholders, including research centres and universities, UIC is a natural forum for bringing together all stakeholders and for developing collaborative global solutions.
This document, ranging from architecture to financial arrangements, provides an overview of the main achievements and developments in UIC. Depending on one’s different interests, it will give a synthetic description of operational solutions suited to market needs. It will be an efficient tool for summarising in a few pages the added value of UIC spread in different instruments and workflows:
This document, ranging from architecture to financial arrangements, provides an overview of the main achievements and developments in UIC. Depending on one’s different interests, it will give a synthetic description of operational solutions suited to market needs. It will be an efficient tool for summarising in a few pages the added value of UIC spread in different instruments and workflows:
- 700 leaflets describing the entire railway system (with progressive conversion to +/- 300 International Railway Solutions)
- Technical Specifications
- Qualitative and quantitative guidelines
- 118 working groups and more than 1,000 experts drawn from member companies
- Regularly updated procedures, with a dedicated supervisory platform for standardisation.

Design a better future: Vision of Rail 2030
Design a better future: Vision of Rail 2030
The UIC presents this Vision 2030, painting the picture of how, given the right action and investment, we can design a better future where rail is the backbone of a sustainable mobility system. This inspiring vision, created by UIC Global Rail Sustainability Taskforce, describes a future where we are on track to decarbonise transport and a thriving railway has unleashed many benefits for society. The vision includes a call for action to help design this better future.

CES Las Vegas 2023 – UIC Technical report
CES Las Vegas 2023 – UIC Technical report
Adaptation to climate change is becoming a major concern, shared worldwide, and the urgency of which has just been recalled by the IPCC. As a result, UIC published its “Vision of Rail in 2030”, encouraging the allocation of funds to invest in the improvements of railway infrastructure, rolling stock and services, as well as innovation to decarbonise operations, in order to drastically increase the number of trains, the number of passengers and freight carried worldwide. Innovation! That is the reason why CES Las Vegas is so important for the UIC.
UIC has been active at CES Las Vegas and CES Government since 2017, participating in conferences and panels, delivering keynote speeches, and supporting the promotion of rail.
In 2023, UIC increased its presence at CES even further. Thanks to CES Las Vegas 2023, it is possible for railway stakeholders from all over the world to identify the main trends in innovation.
