The scenic Mont-Blanc Express railway stretches approximately 54 kilometers between Saint-Gervais-les-Bains in France and Martigny in Switzerland. Opened in 1906, it was designed to improve connectivity, boost local travel and facilitate tourism across the mountainous Franco-Swiss border and is widely regarded as one of the best rail journeys in the Alps. However, while the steep gradients along

Maintenance vehicles manufactured by Plasser & Theurer will reduce CO₂ and noise emissions, improve health and safety at work sites, and boost the productivity of the railway maintenance operations in Austria.

Railway track switches (points) are crucial to all rail operations. The signaling, detection and locking systems built into and around switches have to be protected against the rigors of everyday operations and often harsh environments. Any disruption can significantly reduce network capacity. Korail, the Korea Railroad Corporation, is the national railway operator in South Korea, operating the
