About us 
Overview
An interest group representing the railway industry
The Rail Working Group (RWG) is a not-for-profit group established at
the request of UNIDROIT to represent the position of the rail industry
relating to adoption and implementation of a protocol for the rail industry
to the 2001 Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile
Equipment.
The RWG had observer status at the Cape Town Diplomatic Conference adopting the Convention in October and November 2001, and was actively involved in the framing of the Convention. It also had observer status at the Luxembourg Diplomatic Conference of February 2007 which adopted the Luxembourg Rail Protocol to the Convention and will be a member of the Preparatory Commission established by the Luxembourg Diplomatic Conference.
Before the adoption of the Luxembourg Rail Protocol, the RWG was actively
involved in commenting on, and drafting in relation to, the Protocol ensuring
that the text did not lose touch with the commercial realities of the
rail industry. We will be actively working with individual governments,
industry bodies and the two sponsoring organisations, OTIF and UNIDROIT,
in the implementation of the Luxembourg Protocol. We also participate
in seminars , and also issue publications
discussing the Protocol.
