Amaro attends the IRSE York Section Dinner in March 2020

In the midst of what is undoubtedly a very serious and concerning situation, Amaro Signalling attended the Institution of Railway Signal Engineers’ York Section dinner.

Held at the simply incredible National Railway Museum in the heart of York, this event proved a great opportunity for our team – including our MD, Michael Ewart – to meet up with current and future colleagues, especially amidst such difficult circumstances.

This year’s event saw Jon Shaw, Chief Engineer at Network Rail, sharing his views on how technology and systems will shape the future of railway signalling. It was a truly informative occasion and great to see so many rail professionals remaining committed to the industry, furthering themselves and their networks in the face of current events.

The top right corner also has colorful confetti, celebrating the accomplishment.
