New products from rolling-stock manufacturers TT-Model and Peresvet will be displayed. As is traditional, the exhibition will be complemented by works by students of the Quantorium children’s technoparks, children’s railway clubs, and finalists of the Second City Competition “Open Steam-Locomotive Races: Revival Two Centuries Later,” organized by the Academy of Technical Creativity and Digital Technologies.
The People’s Choice Award winner will be selected by public vote. During the exhibition, the annual Title Prize for a special contribution to the development of this form of technical creativity will be presented.
