InnoTrans
InnoTrans is the world's largest trade fair focused on the rail transport industry.[2] It is held every two years at the Messe Berlin exhibition centre, which has outdoor standard gauge railway sidings which can be used to exhibit railway vehicles.[3] During the weekend after the trade show the public can visit the rolling stock on display.
InnoTrans has grown steadily in area and exhibitor numbers since it moved to Berlin in 1996.[2] For the 2010 fair organiser Messe Berlin Ltd announced an increase to 2,000 exhibitors from 44 countries, covering the whole area of the exhibition centre for the first time.[4]
Public Transport Interiors
A spin-off supplementary exhibition aimed at the mass transit sector is to be held in the years between InnoTrans events. The first "Public Transport Interiors" even will be held on 19-21 June 2013 at the Messe Berlin exhibition centre.[5]
