Electric bus showcase to make debut alongside rolling stock
One of the unique features of RailLog Korea is its display of rolling stock at the fairground. A total of three railway vehicles will be showcased at this edition, while an electric bus will also be presented for the first time to demonstrate the latest trends from this growing segment of the logistics industry.
Hyundai Rotem, who have supplied various types of railway vehicles, including EMUs, high speed trains, trams, LRVs, DMUs, locomotives, passenger coaches and freight wagons, to 37 countries and regions across the world, will exhibit two models of their latest rolling stock at the fairground. Meanwhile, Woojin Industrial Systems, a specialist in railway systems, electric buses and renewable energy systems, will also present their newest rolling stock alongside a state-of-the-art electric bus.
Alongside these large-scale displays, a variety of parts and components, infrastructure, and services for the railway and logistics industry will be exhibited across the show floor.
Explore the latest industry topics via various fringe events
As always, RailLog Korea will feature numerous fringe events to provide participants with perspectives on the most pressing industry trends and topics. Experts from TÜV Rheinland Korea Ltd will present information about international certification for the global market, while other expert-led seminars will explore CBM technology for rolling stock and legal issues related to technology transfer.
Next to the fairground, The Korean Society For Railway will hold its 2021 Spring Conference. The conference is supported by RailLog Korea and will host roughly 700 experts to discuss the latest industrial topics and trends.
New online business matching service
Due to the travel restrictions caused by COVID-19, the organisers have launched a new online business meeting service to connect overseas buyers with exhibitors at the fairground. The online event will provide exhibitors with more opportunities for business and bring industry players from around the globe closer together.
