18:30 Networking Dinner at CfL - 19:00 First dish to be served

On February 24, 2024, we will visit the brand new DSB depot in Copenhagen, and there will be a networking dinner in the evening. February 25, 2025 is our conference day with the presentations. We will be dealing with automation in trams - in the depot and in normal operation.

Does a depot have to be built specifically for (automated) trams? Do we need inspection machines for maintenance? Or is it enough that the automated tram has to cope with all kinds of infrastructure/depots? What can be achieved with central control of the depot?

A look into the crystal ball: Which developments will become reality and what comes first? Be there when tram experts talk about automation in trams, not just in the depot.
