Introducing Zelra, the new global rail brand for TTG Europe and Trapeze Rail

Zelra, a new rail technology brand, has launched with a singular focus on providing rail operators with software solutions that reduce carbon, complexity, delays, and costs.

Zelra is an international business that unites brands previously known as TTG Europe in the UK and France, and as Trapeze Rail in Australia and New Zealand.

As a Modaxo company, Zelra is proud to be part of the global collective of respected and widely used transport technology organisations with a mission to enable the daily movement of one billion people by 2030.

The Managing Director of Zelra, Michael Zink, said the company’s goal is to radically improve rail operations through proven technology solutions.

“We launched Zelra because this unified identity expresses our focus on creating value for the rail industry around the world,” Mr Zink said. “Our teams in Europe and Australia can share their industry experience more effectively, creating an expanded international footprint that benefits all our customers.

“Zelra has grown from Trapeze Rail and TTG Europe. We inherit those organisations’ commitment to continued product investment, unique academic and industry partnership, and deep rail domain knowledge,” he said.

“Our customers enjoy the confidence of knowing we are a Modaxo company with close connections to Trapeze Group businesses around the world, so our software solutions are backed by global expertise.”

Zelra’s suite of rail-specific software solutions includes Driving Advice Systems (DAS) used by operators such as SNCF in France and KiwiRail in New Zealand to enhance energy management, analytics, train performance, and reporting.

Its Workforce Management platform helps Australian passenger and freight businesses save time and costs by optimising rail staff schedules, forecasting, and compliance. Zelra’s Automated Vehicle Location and Control (AVLC) solution is being implemented on the world’s largest tram network, Yarra Trams in Melbourne, to provide accurate vehicle tracking for effective fleet management in real time.
