Continuous improvement in inter-car connection systems was the topic for a talk by Greg Howell, managing director of LPA Connection Systems, who highlighted how reliable components can help depots in their quest to win Golden Spanners trophies.
Mr Howell said that LPA’s connector designs have a heritage of over 150 years, while LPA has driven continuous improvement through its five decades of experience in the rail market. Innovation has also been harnessed, for example in the development of its 10Gbps Ethernet backbone.
