The IRG-Rail plenary assembly convened for its fall meeting in Barcelona, chaired by CNMC, the Spanish rail regulatory authority.

Railway experts gathered at Vienna's Urania to discuss access to the rail transport market, its regulation, and the future of rail freight transport.

In a ruling on a provision in the rail network usage conditions of a railway infrastructure company, the Federal Administrative Court upheld the approach taken by the Schienen-Control . The court dismissed the appeal lodged by ÖBB Infrastruktur AG against a decision dated May 22, 2024 as unfounded, thereby confirming the legal opinion of the authority.
