4th International Conference - Railways: Transcending Cultures through Transportation
Rail Enthusiasts’ Society invites you to join its 4th International Conference being organised on the 2nd and 3rd of March 2024. The theme of the conference is RAILWAYS: TRANSCENDING CULTURES THROUGH TRANSPORTATION. Renowned and knowledgeable speakers from Australia, Canada, UK, USA and, of course, India will tell you about how the railways have influenced the culture of a country or area and, conversely, how the culture of a country affects the railways.
A zoom link for this conference will be provided well before the conference itself. Participation is free but you will need to register. Only those registering will be sent the conference link.
