6 WELCOME Welcome to the World Congress on Railway Research 2016! It is our great pleasure to welcome delegates, exhibitors and sponsors to the eleventh edition of the WCRR. The World Congress on Railway Research is the world s foremost international forum for promoting, developing and exchanging the latest innovations from the global rail industry. The international community of railway companies, researchers and other stakeholders will meet to share their experience. Railway research and innovation involving operators, infrastructure managers and industry planners not only relate to technical matters, but also affect all the industrial and financial processes required to build and offer customers services through higher-capacity, better-performing and more cost-effective rail systems. This is the aim of the WCRR 2016 with its theme Research and Innovation from Today Towards Encouraging all railway stakeholders to show and share what they do and thereby innovate their activities, aiming to deliver a better-performing, and more sustainable railway system that appeals more to new and existing customers, looking towards two horizons: long term vision and the near future. Sponsors and exhibitors as well will have the chance to benefit from this opportunity to show cutting edge activities, products and research to the international stage and Congress participants. The WCRR 2016, hosted by Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane Group and Trenitalia, will take place at the Stella Polare Congress Centre in Milan, Italy - in the heart of Europe and a destination for tourists and business from all over the world - from 29 May to 2 June 2016, thereby becoming the biggest ever rail conference/exhibition hosted in that region, with 800+ participants from 30+ nations around the world, 300+ speakers, papers and proofs of concept. We wish to thank all of you for your participation, looking forward to meeting you in Milan. Renato Mazzoncini CEO Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane Group Gioia Ghezzi Chair of the Board Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane 5

7 WCRR 2016 CONGRESS COMMITTEES Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane The Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane is one of Italy s largest and most influential industrial corporations: around 70,000 individuals contribute to running over 8,000 trains per day, transporting 600 million passengers and 50 million tons of freight per year, relying on a railway network spanning over 16,700 km, of which 1,000 km are dedicated to high-speed travel. Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane creates and manages railway transport works and services for Italian and foreign customers while contributing to the development of a great project of mobility and logistics for Italy. The establishment of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane on 21 April 1905 was a milestone in Italy s unification process. In more than a century of serving citizens, our Group has contributed to Italy s progress and the economic, social and cultural development. Trenitalia Wholly owned by Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane, Trenitalia is the company which handles passenger transport and logistics. Founded to meet the needs of the railway industry, Trenitalia focuses on seizing the challenges of the market by placing customers at the centre of its activities. It works to make its industrial organisation increasingly modern and efficient, where productivity, earnings and high quality services are combined with high levels of social and territorial responsibility and environmental sustainability. These principles are supported by the commitment for a more flexible company, able to update strategies and objectives in short timeframes. One of the leading railway operators in Europe, everyday Trenitalia manages more than 9,000 trains and each year transports more than half a billion travellers and about 80 million tons of freight. It also has a strong international vocation: a host of commercial agreements with other European railway operators and significant acquisitions of stakes in foreign operators. The Italian Organising Committee - IOC Established by Trenitalia and Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane, has been appointed by WCRR to organise the WCRR 2016 edition.

8 FOUNDING MEMBERS Transportation Technology Center, Inc. (TTCI), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Association of American Railroads (AAR), provides emerging technology solutions for the railway industry throughout North America and the world. Located in Pueblo, Colorado, USA, TTCI team members are involved in research, development, testing, and training for the global railroad community to continually enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency. Located on a secure 52-square-mile facility with a vast array of specialized testing and tracks, TTCI s expertise covers freight and passenger rolling stock, vehicle and track components, communication and train control, and automated inspection systems. The site s 48 miles of test tracks are used for track structure and vehicle performance testing, lifecycle prediction and component reliability, lading damage prevention tests, and freight ride quality and passenger comfort. Combined with a dynamic concentration of noted rail industry experts, TTCI has the unique ability to solve technical problems with full-scale testing and/or modeling services. TTCI also operates the world's foremost security and emergency response training center for surface transportation-related threats and incidents involving hazardous materials. Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) offers mobility and logistics services worldwide, with full operational responsibility in its three complementary divisions passenger transport, infrastructure networks and logistics. More than 300,000 employees, about 80,000 of which are employed in Europe outside Germany, are committed to ensuring that customers are provided with reliable transport services and that the related rail, road, sea and air traffic networks are operated efficiently. DB was incorporated as a public company in 1994 and is fully state-owned. DB s vision is to become the leading mobility and logistics company, by combining sustainable business success and social acceptance. To ensure long-term business success in a sector characterised by very long product lifecycles and long-term investments in infrastructure, DB has adopted a harmonised approach to tackling economic, social and environmental issues. DB aims to be a profitable market leader in Europe with a strong focus on both quality and on achieving a high level of satisfaction with its customers and its international community of employees. In the light of current demographic developments, DB has to ensure that its employees identify with a diverse customer-focused and innovative organisation. DB strives to be an ecopioneer and offer products that set standards for the efficient use of resources. The railway is a complex system with multiple interfaces delivered by many different organisations. At RSSB, we bring these different organisations together to make collective decisions. Through research, the understanding of risk, and analysis, we help the rail industry in the areas of safety, standards, knowledge and innovation. We support the railway too across a wide range of cross-industry topics requiring our knowledge and independence. And we provide a constant point of reference in a changing environment. Our work involves close collaboration, but as technical experts, we re also able to step back and provide an informed view. And because we can see both the big picture and the detail, we re able to furnish the industry with the information and tools it needs to continuously improve. We re an expert body with a wide compass of knowledge, skills and experience. We re owned by the industry but are non profit-making and independent of any commercial interests. We span the whole system, including in our membership infrastructure companies, train and freight operators, rolling stock owners and suppliers to the industry. Together we provide collective wisdom for a better railway. 7
