Over the past two decades, RAILCON has become a recognized platform for exchanging knowledge, presenting research results and discussing strategic directions for the development of modern railway systems.
The topics that will be considered during the Conference cover a wide and interdisciplinary range of subjects including but not limiting to rolling stock technologies, traffic management, railway infrastructure, maintenance, digital transformation, artificial intelligence applications, smart monitoring systems, logistics, economics, strategic planning and railway policy.
During the RAILCON ’26 a specialized exhibition and marketing presentations will be organized for potential exhibitors that want to present their products and services to the Conference participants.
As Railways have an inherent advantages in terms of environmental performance, land use, energy efficiency and safety, strengthening the role of railway – both passenger and freight – in the transport system is an important goal. The aim of the RAILCON '26 is to contribute to more attractive, competitive, affordable, efficient and sustainable European rail system, integrated into the wider mobility system. The railway must further enhance its performance through innovation as major tool to solve current and future problems in the railway sector.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to Niš. As in previous Conferences, we will do our best to provide an engaging and inspiring scientific programme, and we sincerely hope that you will actively contribute with high-quality papers and presentations.
