Shift2Rail, confirmation of a strong advantage of the European railway industry

Only four months after the publication of the legislative proposal by the European Commission, Technological Initiative Shift2Rail is closer than ever to becoming reality in the sector of research and innovation in the rail industry. March and April were characterised by a series of successive agreements approved during the meetings of the Transport Ministers Council of the European Union (TTE), the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and, more recently, on April 15th during the meeting of European Parliament which gave the green light to the Technological Initiative.
