    Farshout Station: Driving Progress across Egypt’s Railway Network 🚆 The recent commissioning of Farshout Station marks a key milestone in the modernisation of the Asyut – Nagh Hammadi corridor, a strategic project aimed at enhancing railway safety, efficiency, and technology across Egypt. Since 2013, Hitachi Rail and Egyptian National Railways (ENR) have worked in partnership to upgrade the country’s railway infrastructure across multiple projects. Now, with more than 90% of Asyut – Nagh Hammadi corridor modernised, Farshout Station represents the final stretch of this ambitious upgrade, featuring new signalling and communication systems. This achievement is a testament to the dedication and collaboration of our team, whose expertise is shaping the future of rail transport in Egypt. 👏 Congratulations to everyone involved in this remarkable milestone! #RailwayModernisation #Egypt #Asyut #NaghHammadi

  • Collaboration in action at Interchange 2025! At Hitachi Rail, we’re committed to making cities easier to navigate by transforming the way people and goods move through smarter, greener, and more connected transport solutions - and #lightrail is at the heart of that transformation. #Interchange2025 brought together the best of the industry, driving the mobility transition. It was fantastic to engage with partners, customers, and stakeholders to discuss how trams and #urbanmobility solutions can help accelerate #netzero transport, reduce congestion, and enhance passenger experiences. From digital signalling to integrated ticketing, the conversations focused on how innovation and collaboration will define the next generation of sustainable urban transport. Thank you to everyone who visited our stand, joined the conversation at our roundtable, or attended one of the Hitachi keynotes!

    📣🎉This International Women's Day (IWD), Hitachi is celebrating "Hitachi for Women”! While progress has been made for women in the workplace, we recognize there's still work to do. Women represent half of the world’s population, yet they represent only 29.2% of the STEM workforce. To address this, Hitachi is driving change through initiatives like STEM education, leadership development programs, and inclusive workplace policies to empower women based on merit. IWD is just one moment where we can bring focus to this, but it’s important we take action for gender equity all year round to help everyone in our company reach their full potential. The diversity of thoughts is core drivers of innovation and business growth. With over 67,000 women at Hitachi, their contributions are essential to our progress. By recognizing their achievements and addressing unconscious biases, together we can accelerate action toward a more equitable, innovative, and sustainable future for all. #IWD2025 #InternationalWomensDay #AccelerateAction #TogetherStronger
