The 13th World Congress on Railway Research (WCRR) is coming to the United Kingdom, proudly hosted by RSSB and the University of Birmingham.
The WCRR Organising Committee is now inviting the submission of abstracts for presentations at the 2022 Congress in line with the theme:
Reshaping our railways post-pandemic: Research with an impact
Call for Papers
WCRR aims to promote the tangible value of railway research and the benefits that international collaboration brings to research activities. If you are a rail professional or researcher, this is an excellent opportunity to raise your profile within the global research and innovation community, and to share your work with international experts.
The 2022 Congress will focus on research that has delivered, or will deliver, real change within the rail industry, and the projects that offer benefit to passengers, freight, customers, the environment and the economy as a whole. Tangible impact and knowledge sharing will be key factors that will inform the selection of papers.

- Low emissions
