About RailLog Korea
Busan – hub city of transportation and logistics in Northeast Asia
RailLog Korea presents great growth potential, thanks to the geographical benefits of Busan, as the very starting point and final destination of the Trans-Asian Railway (TAR) network. In addition, Busan is a hub city where all logistics functions, including railroad, port, air and highway are integrated. Busan boasts advanced logistics infrastructure equipped with New Port logistics complex connected to railroads, aiming to be the genuine hub of logistics in Northeast Asia.
The railway industry is currently booming in Korea
South Korea’s central and local governments are promoting the construction/expansion of railways and subways, eco-friendly alternatives to road transportation, aiming for a Green Transportation Era. A total of 70 construction projects with 3,047km length of high-speed, conventional and inter-city railways are now underway, with an additional 1,081km construction projects planned. Also, railway/subway constructions are actively being initiated in major cities throughout the nation.
Latest venue for railway business
RailLog Korea is the latest and globally competitive venue for the railway business where the most advanced technologies from global players are presented, from parts and components to rolling stocks. The fair is positioning itself as the real marketplace for business and gathering in the railways as well as logistics industries.

RailLog Korea sees growth potentials with reconciliation mood between two Koreas
RailLog Korea 2019 sees further growth potentials, animated by present reconciliation atmosphere in the Korean Peninsula. As the plan of the ‘Iron Silk Road’ of TAR networks is the fair’s long-term and fundamental business background, and with the government expressing its commitment to the inter-Korean railway connection, the next editions of RailLog Korea are expected to be held on a larger scale, as Korea’s only and Asia’s predominant event dedicated to the latest advancements in the railway industry.
