The next edition of the international trade fair dedicated to railway technologies and infrastructures will be held 10-12 May at Olympia London.

Railtex / Infrarail, the international trade fair for railway technology and infrastructure, will take place from 10th to 12th May 2022 at Olympia London. The exhibition will present the latest developments in sustainable and smart rail operations and will include a high-profile conference programme.

Railtex / Infrarail was one of the industry’s first live events to return after the pandemic in 2021, with 5000 industry professionals in attendance and a conference programme featuring 50 expert sessions. The railway sector is considered a leader in sustainable travel and will play an essential role in rebooting the European economy, since supply chains are looking for new solutions to tackle capacity issues and staff shortages.

The exhibition will cover rolling stock technology, track and infrastructure, signalling and communications, vehicle maintenance equipment, fare collection systems, rolling stock leasing, electronics for rail applications, cable technology and many other specialised products for the efficient and safe operation of rail and public transport systems.

“Last September was all about restoring opportunities for the rail sector to finally reconnect and meet in person. For the upcoming show in May, we will intensify our efforts to further promote and support the rail industry’s progress in the post-pandemic world which will very much depend on the successful delivery of technology across the network,” stated Olaf Freier, the director of Railtex / Infrarail, on behalf of the event organiser Mack-Brooks Exhibitions. “The railway industry wants to build back better but also in a greener, more environmentally friendly way and is prepared to maximise investment. Railtex and Infrarail visitors come from railway management, engineering, planning and technical design backgrounds, with real purchasing decision powers and investment plans. Meeting suppliers from the entire railway supply chain will help them identify the right technologies that hold the most potential for their railway operations.”

The On-Track Display Area features one length of track within the exhibition hall, providing the opportunity to see track-related equipment in an authentic rail setting and offering first-hand insights on how products sit and operate on track. The conference programme, organised by the main show partner RIA (the Railway Industry Association for railway suppliers in the UK), features keynote speeches and panel discussions led by industry experts on a broad range of topics addressing key challenges and opportunities. All the sessions are free to attend and CPD certified. In addition, the Recruitment Wall will provide opportunities to discuss career options.

Opening times: 10am-5pm on 10th and 11th May and 10am-4pm on 12th May.
