Innovative Freight Assets - an overview of facts and news
This webinar focused on multimodal hydrogen containers, automation through the self-propelled wagon and aerodynamic energy-efficient wagons designs for safety and efficient driving practices. Watch the film, download the presentation and update yourself on the status, ongoing work and plans.
The presentation starts after 15 seconds.
With a mission to create new solutions for efficient logistics for rail services, the FP5 TRANS4M-R project has worked on defining functional requirements and concepts of Innovative Freight Assets. This work has lead to technical specifications, validation plans, preliminary designs for implementation and preliminary tests which we now want to share outside the project.
