25 YEARS OF ACHIEVEMENT IN RESEARCH AND STANDARDISATION

Since the International Union of Railways (UIC) established the Office for Research & Experiments (ORE) at Utrecht in 1950, over 700 technical reports covering more than 140 problems peculiar to railway engineering have been published. In addition, much progress has been made towards establishing technical standards through coordination of research and development work carried out by ORE's member railways. Close collaboration between more than 40 administrations and the joint work of nearly 450 specialists demonstrates the international cooperation among railways and creates conditions for the broadest integration.
