DESCRIPTION:The IEEE VTS Estonia Section is pleased to host a public lectur
 e titled “Beyond the Tracks: Subsystems in Electric Rail Transportation\
 ,” aimed at students from the School of Engineering\, particularly withi
 n the Department of Electrical Power Engineering and Mechatronics. The lec
 ture targets those interested in electric transportation systems\, offerin
 g an inside look into the often-overlooked subsystems that enable modern r
 ail networks to function safely and efficiently. From signalling and power
  supply to communications\, control\, and operations\, the session will ex
 plore how these subsystems interact to form a complex\, integrated transpo
 rtation system. The invited speaker\, Thian Ky Goh\, Senior Project Manage
 r Contol\, Command\, and Signalling (CCS) Department at Rail Baltica Eston
 ia\, will share insights from one of Europe’s most ambitious rail infras
 tructure projects\, highlighting real-world challenges and opportunities i
