Our planet is searching for solutions to reduce its carbon footprint. As such, rail mobility must be seen by all as an obvious answer. Trains, metros and trams are much less polluting than cars and planes. As citizens, by choosing trains for our passenger, freight and tourist travel, we are actively contributing to the preservation of the environment. This is why the ETF exists: to promote rail mobility.
