Connectivity for CCTV and Rail Operations Conference
London 5-6 November
Wireless broadband connections to trains are multiplying fast and
train operators are using them for more than merely providing
WiFi to passengers. These links can also help provide operational
applications, to cut costs, improve services and generally get
board-members glowing with approval.
BWCS’s second conference of 2014, Connectivity for CCTV and Rail
Operations – November 5th and 6th, will examine the growth of
these new services which range from real-time CCTV surveillance to
live train diagnostic reporting.
According to Graham Wilde, CEO of BWCS, “We are just beginning
to see the birth of these services. It’s important for CCTV and
for cost-saving applications to get the data off the trains quickly.
However, it is then even more important that operators can
do something clever and worthwhile with the data once it is
downloaded. This Conference will explore how this can be done and
what the end results can be.”
The November Conference has already attracted train operators
and suppliers from around the world and is set to be the only one
to focus directly on the issues facing train companies, transport
groups and rail authorities as they struggle to make trains and
stations more secure, gain direct access to on-train CCTV images
and develop new cost-saving systems to capitalise on the emerging
generation of IP cameras and the growing wireless broadband
connections..
Join the debate, question the train companies that have launched
services and find out where they will take them next. This is your
chance to meet the people who are shaping this market, who
are driving it forward and bringing in new services, ideas and
technologies.
Please be advised that places are extremely limited and are selling
out fast. To reserve your place now -please use the order form.
As ever, the Conference will provide a great networking opportunity
and a very limited number of sponsorship positions are still
available.

What they said about previous Conferences
“The essential meeting place for all the players for Internet &
Multimedia on train solutions”
Jean-Francois de Lantsheere, Deputy Managing Director,
21Net
“The Train Communications Systems Conferences put together by
BWCS have become the de facto standard for transit authorities to
learn about the current state of communications to moving trains
and which vendors have solutions to meet their needs - whether
consumer, operational, or security related... There is no better place
to learn and understand where the industry is and where it is going
to be in the future.”
Cooper Lee, WiFiRail, USA
‘I have rarely had an occasion to exchange so much knowledge in
such a short time as in the Rail CCTV Conference in London’
Ivan Sørensen European Commission, DG Mobility and
Transport
Conference sponsors
Train Communications is one must-attend event on my schedule
of rail conferences in Europe. I look forward to this annual event,
which provides me with a wealth of information about developments
in technologies, the latest innovations, and new services. In
addition, I always come away having gained insight into where
the market is heading and what’s coming next. The presentations
are fresh; the speakers inspired; discussions spontaneous. The
organisation by Graham, Ross, and the rest of the BWCS team, is
top rate too. What’s not to like?”
Lesley Brown, journalist, EURAILmag
“I have attended a number of events organised by BWCS. What
impressed me was the availability of a very highly skilled team of
industry experts with them. The team’s wide range of experience
and profound wireless industry knowledge have been instrumental
in helping us in framing specifications for providing Wireless
broadband services on our trains, an essential social ingredient
of life in India. The events organized by them have been of high
technical standard, focus is always on services & products and not
on companies, allowing us to choose the best option.”
Anshul Gupta, Executive Director, RailTel, Ministry of
Railways, India
“Putting Wi-Fi on trains is hard enough but thankfully the annual
BWCS Train Communications is there as the world’s clearinghouse for this very issue. It is a ‘must do’ for any manager or train
operator working in this space.”
Jim Allison, Manager of Planning, Capitol Corridor Joint
Powers Authority
“BWCS WiFi on Trains Conferences were very interesting and very
useful indeed. The event gathered many customers and suppliers
from around the world. I was impressed by the quality of the
presentations allowing fruitful exchanges on the future of wireless
service and your excellent organisation. I highly recommend joining
these conferences.”
Petr Kolar, Systems Specialist, Czech Railways
