Review of the 12th Annual UK Light Rail Conference
In its 12th year, Rob Armstrong, Consultancy Manager at York EMC Services was a speaker and panelist at this year's event for the first time.
Around 260 people descended on Manchester in July for the 12th Annual UK Light Rail Conference for two days of presentations, panel debates and an exhibition focused upon the latest trends and innovation in the sector.
With a greater worldwide presence than ever before, presentations on game-changing schemes and new technology were received from 12 countries, as well as project updates on new and ongoing schemes across the UK.
Rob Armstrong, Consultancy Manager at York EMC Services was invited to聽be part of the conference, and his presentation entitled 鈥EMC 鈥 Removing the overhead doesn鈥檛 remove the problem鈥 was well received by the audience (jokes included).
With a focus聽on strategy, scheme development and funding, and technical and operational innovation, some of the industry鈥檚 leading suppliers exhibited and presented at the show.
This was a very positive and interesting event and we look forward to taking part again in 2018.
At York EMC Services we understand and have experience of the EMC requirements of light聽rail systems聽and subsystems which must both co-exist and interact. These can include signalling, traction, infrastructure, power delivery, radio and telecommunications, amongst others.
As part of our regular yearly series of seminars, Wurth Electronics UK and 黑料社区 Electrical & Electronics UK have a series of free 1-day technical presentations and demonstrations planned in 2026.
