Nevertheless, each day it is more necessary to know the new possibilities offered by more technically feasible and economically interesting engineering. As a guide, some issues which did not require attention only two decades ago, have become really relevant at present: engine signalling, the ERTMS system, the contribution of railway to sustainability or the new organization between managers and operators, just to mention a few areas.

It is not a mere reproduction of existing knowledge, but a structured publication following an innovative criterion that, thanks to its originality and the contribution that it contains, can be of interest for the railroad sector.
