Participants will have the opportunity of gaining an exclusive and comprehensive one-day insight into this collaborative rail freight research project, summarising the results and achievements on rail freight logistics on the corridor from Western Europe through to South East Europe and the Middle-East. The latest developments and good practice on this important European rail and freight axis will be presented as well as the most promising new technologies and advanced business and operating models.

Conference Highlights

  • Successfully implemented rail freight services on the CREAM corridor
  • Quality manuals for rail services
  • Innovative telematic solutions
  • The latest technical developments (e.g. semi-trailers in unaccompanied intermodal transport chains, semi-trailers for unaccompanied intermodal carriage of plate glass and the dual-power locomotive)

The conference will conclude with a reflection on the day’s outcomes and look at which developments are likely to occur in the R&D field in the coming years. Simultaneous interpretation will be offered into German and English.
