The previous Strategic Rail Research Agendas (SRRAs) produced by ERRAC, the European Rail
Research Advisory Council, were based on business scenarios targeting a time horizon for 2020. These
scenarios have been produced in 2002 and 2007. They are partially outdated and they need to be
revised within the current Coordination and Support Action of ERRAC called FOSTER RAIL, by taking
also into account the new target date to be considered on the basis on the additional information
available: 2050.
