With the coronavirus pandemic causing massive disruption to the rail industry, and with rail events being postponed, we take a look at how the industry is faring, how governments should support both passenger and freight rail and how rail infrastructure projects are coping at the moment. With the example of HS2, we look at the challenges being faced and at how major projects such as this one can provide a route map for economic recovery. On the cover we have the white Heroes locomotive by Lineas, thanking all those who are going the extra mile during the coronavirus pandemic in order to keep society going. Also inside: an interview with Allianz pro Schiene, and UNIFE's assessment of how COVID-19 is impacting the rail industry. What does the future hold and how does the European Green Deal contribute?
