UIC has a new director of the rail system department


UIC, the worldwide railway organisation, has welcomed a new director to its technical “rail system” department. Christian Chavanel succeeds Marc Antoni, who was recognised for his wide range of expertise and who led this department for five years.

 

Chavanel is a railway professional with more than 30 years’ experience in international development, project management, operation, maintenance, safety, standardisation and regulatory affairs. He is an engineer and holds an executive MBA.

 

The UIC rail system department supports the work of the rail system forum. This forum relies on its members to continuously improve the railway system. The forum is divided into six sectors dedicated to keep railways at the edge of technology and to seamlessly interconnect with other modes of transport. Rail system deals with a wide range of subjects such as train-track interaction, track and structures, rolling stock, energy management, asset management and operations, telecoms, signalling and digital applications.
