Among those operators were Melbourne, Queensland, London, Tokyo, Munich, Oslo, San Francisco, Hong Kong, New York, Sydney, Copenhagen and Cape Town. All of them are commuter rail operators that shared their experience in services, management and performance within a framework of confidentiality in order to promote the sustained development of the sector.

The event allowed participation in different activities including visits to the several FGC facilities such as the Integrated Control Centre located in Rubí, the workshops, the driving simulators or the new FGC stations.

In the meetings, the International Suburban Rail Benchmarking Group analyses more than 150 indicators in its annual evolution and also a selection of topics to encourage data sharing and best practices. Three of those aspects that were discussed in Barcelona were video surveillance, driver productivity and signals passed at danger.
