techUK Innovation in Rail week #RailTechUK
Technology is central to reforming our railways. As work continues to establish Great British Railways, we are spotlighting innovation and showcasing how we can deliver a first-class rail system.
The themes centre around Great British Railway’s strategic pillars for transformation. However, with so much to say on the role of data and digital specifically, we have dedicated both Thursday and Friday to this area.
