The new EOS R8 Mark II, scheduled for release on 29 October 2026, will also be displayed.
The Railway Festival is hosted by the Railway Day Executive Committee. The event provides railway-related information, opportunities for interaction between industry participants and visitors, and railway goods sold at various booths.
