Conventions
The Institution organises an international technical convention every year to various railway administrations to see differing engineering and operational practices. The convention, lasting some four days, comprises a mix of technical papers and presentations, technical visits to see systems in use and a programme of tourist and social events for partners. In recent years, conventions have been held in Spain, Thailand, The Netherlands, Switzerland, France and Ireland.

2011 International Technical Convention
The 2011 international technical convention is being held from 9-14th October 2011, and will be based in Singapore and Malaysia. The convention will start in Singapore with registration and a welcome reception on the evening of Sunday 9th October.  We plan to travel to Kuala Lumpur by train on Wednesday 12th and spend the last two days of the convention in Malaysia.  There will be a programme of technical papers and site visits in both locations.

A call for papers for the Convention has now been issued, and is available in the more information column on the right of this page.
