Edition 42 November 2023 INSIDE THIS EDITION+ CEO message CEO MESSAGELast week RISSB attended the 2023 AusRAIL Plus conference held at the ICC in Sydney. From the presentations and exhibitions, to the networking events and gala dinners, we have really enjoyed this year's conference. Congratulations to the Australasian Railway Association (ARA) on holding another outstanding event. This year’s event provided the invaluable opportunity for us to talk to key members of the industry about our safety, training and systems products. A big thank you to the people who stopped by our exhibition stand to ask questions, get guidance or just connect in-person, we're looking forward to continuing the harmonisation and interoperability conversations in the future.
