On the eve of Railtex and Infrarail, organizers announce the date of their next railway industry event.

From 7 to 9 September 2021 at the NEC Birmingham will take place Railtex, 15th International Exhibition of Railway Equipment, Systems and Services, and Infrarail, 13th International Railway Infrastructure Exhibition.

For the first time since the onset of the pandemic, operators of the infrastructure and rolling stock sectors will meet in person and will be able to discuss innovations in the railway sector. 220 exhibitors from 12 countries are expected.

Olaf Freier, Railtex/Infrarail Portfolio Director, on behalf of Mack-Brooks Exhibitions, says: “We are so delighted to meet face-to-face with the market at last, after eighteen long months without an event of this stature, and we will continue to go above and beyond to ensure we deliver an event that is both safe but also hugely valuable and energising for our participants. It is been a long road, but we have made it – we thank our partners and loyal exhibitors for their support over the last few months.”

On the occasion of these events, organizer Mack-Brooks Exhibitions announces the decision to organize the exhibitions once again in 2022 to give new impetus to the concept of interconnected mobility by fuelling the smart cities of tomorrow: “One of the main drivers in our decision to co-locate Railtex and Infrarail is our vision: bringing together all areas of the sector – environmental, sustainability, passengers and network safety as well as high-speed rail infrastructures – so that a coherent, functional and collaborative network can emerge all across the UK,” explains Olaf Freier. “This 2021 edition marks the start of our journey and is the first stop on the road to recovery for the UK rail market. Next stop: Olympia London from 10 to 12 May 2022. We invite everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to fortify and grow their organisation,” continues Olaf Freier.
