This marks a huge growth in a relatively short space of time and the market for such services is set expand much further. BWCS annual Train Communications Systems Conference is the only event to focus directly on this fast-moving, innovative market.

Xenventure Managing Partner Jim Baker will present a session on the opening day June 12 titled 'The Impact of 4G Networks on Rail Communications'. For more information please visit the TrainsComms web site.
