RedCabin announced the Railway Interior Innovation Summit 2023 will take place from April 18-20 at Alumni House in Salt Lake City, hosted by Stadler.

The three-day in-person summit will see industry professionals develop and unveil collaborative partnerships and interior innovations that enhance the onboard experience, according to RedCabin's news release.

“Rail interiors play a vital role in delivering memorable customer experiences that make rail travel so attractive. In addition to being sustainable, traveling by train must be comfortable and accessible," said Martin Ritter, CEO at Stadler U.S. "The RedCabin Railway Interior Innovation Summit is a unique opportunity to further revolutionize the passenger experience as we embark on the creation of a new generation of interior features. We are honored to host our fellow rail pioneers in Salt Lake City and look forward to three days of purposeful conversation, connection, and collaboration.”

The first day of the summit will have a special bus interior focus, exploring the synergy between the two modes of transport and next-generation interior designs for long-distance bus travel in the U.S. Sessions will be led by organizations, including GILLIG, FlixBus, DART, and Utah Transit Authority.

The final two days of the summit will then see delegates explore the challenges and trends in the railway interior industry, including sustainability, digitalization, accessibility, onboard safety, and premium passenger experiences. Sessions include:

  • Keynote presentation on the future of mass rapid transit interiors by Utah Transit Authority.
  • Panel discussion on enhancing regional train interiors featuring Amtrak, Brightline, Siemens Mobility, Sekisui Kydex, and Priestmangoode.
  • Focus sessions on sustainable materials, modular interior designs, and flexible seating layouts.
  • Working groups exploring the future of light rail, underground trains, and high-speed rail interiors.

The final day of the summit will see delegates treated to an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the Stadler facility, including assembly and production areas where trains for Caltrain and MARTA are produced.

“With more passengers turning to rail as a sustainable mode of travel, now is the time for industry leaders to join forces and create the next generation of onboard experiences," said Monica Wick, founder/CEO at RedCabin. "The Railway Interior Innovation Summit has become a hotbed for innovation, giving the industry a platform for sharing expertise and experiences and helping make the rolling stock more sustainable, accessible, and flexible – for both operators and passengers.”
