COLLABORATION BETWEEN UIC AND IRCA IN THE SHARING OF RAILWAY KNOWLEDGE

LA COLLABORATION ENTRE L'UIC ET L'AICCF DANS LE PARTAGE DES CONNAISSANCES FERROVIAIRES

The author, General Manager of the SNCB, Chairman of the IRCA, outlines the leading part played by the IRCA since the end of the last century in the liberal flow of railway information of all types originating in the countries where railways were first built towards those recently created. He explains the contribution made by the UIC and how collaboration and unification have led to better integration in Europe. Both organizations are therefore complementary in certain respects and this has enabled events to be organized and held jointly so as to have maximum impact. The Colloquium next June on the "Sharing of Knowledge", which will enable views to be exchanged and practical solutions sought, is a brilliant example of this method of cooperation.
