Despite well-known challenges around capacity and disruptions, rail is becoming increasingly robust and reliable. Terminals, operators and platforms like Routescanner are improving end-to-end visibility across the chain.<br \/>Across Europe, we\u2019re also seeing targeted investments in key improvements: extending tracks to 740 metres, accelerating the rollout of ERTMS and Digital Automatic Coupling, and improving border crossings.<br \/>At the transport logistic trade fair in Munich, many shippers told us they\u2019re shifting from road or inland shipping to rail \u2013 not only driven by sustainability goals, but also because of reliability and better control over their supply chain. That trend is set to grow in the years ahead, especially now that the European infrastructure agenda is placing stronger focus on smart, cross-border rail connections.[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=&#8221;image_grid&#8221;
