It’s hard to believe that it is only two years since the whole UK rail industry last met at Railtex, but what an incredible two years it has been, with continued Government support and investment, as well as pulling the trigger for HS2. Once again the rail industry converges on 30th April at Earls Court, London as the end of CP4 draws closer and the industry gets ready to move into CP5.
As always Rail Technology Magazine (Britain’s rail industry media leader) will be exhibiting at Railtex and can be found on stand B41, where we will be showcasing our portfolio of products spanning across print, online, e-mail marketing and events. We also look forward to meeting with the many organisations that have expressed an interest in the newly-launched UK Rail Industry Awards (UKRIA) and The UK Rail Industry Training Trust (UKRITT): fi nd out more on pages 118-119.
See you at Railtex 2013!
