The Railway-News Magazine Issue 1 2025 Is Here!
This issue coincides with Train & Rail, taking place in Stockholm, Sweden, in May. The event brings together stakeholders from across the rail industry and serves as a key platform for knowledge sharing, innovation and networking. You can read more about what to expect from this year’s edition and how it aims to shape the future of rail in our event feature (p.12).
Joey Stoate delves into the topic of Reverse Beeching (p.6), exploring the efforts being made to reopen former railway lines that were closed in the 1960s. With a growing focus on sustainable transport and connecting communities, this initiative has proved popular – but it’s not without its challenges.
Also in this issue, we’re featuring some fascinating contributions by our suppliers. Rail BI examines how Network Rail is using asset work bank planning to improve the efficiency and coordination of signalling projects (p.38).
As digitalisation continues to expand across the sector, Nomad Digital takes a look at The Cybersecurity Landscape for Rail (p.32), highlighting the importance of robust strategies to protect critical infrastructure.
And in a case study that blends transport and cultural preservation, Pandrol discusses how the Florence Tramway was engineered to minimise vibrations and safeguard the city’s UNESCO-listed heritage site (p.83).
