Tackling the Challenges of Rail Modernisation - Webinar by Jonathan Leafe
November 07 2025
The difference between ordinary and exceptional rail equipment often lies in the smallest details – the components passengers rarely see, but that determine whether systems function reliably day after day.
Access hardware like hinges, latches and fasteners may seem unremarkable, yet they play a decisive role in operational safety, passenger comfort and system reliability.
Watch Southco’s Jonathan Leafe explore how well-designed access hardware addresses the unintended consequences of rail modernisation, and learn:
- How to ensure external rail panels are safe at high-speed
- How access hardware components assist with passenger comfort
- How balancing efficiency and security plays a key role in rail modernisation
- What to consider when looking for sustainability
- What key points to consider in simplifying, securing and sustaining your access hardware
