Alexander Schulz-Rosengarten 20.1 1 The REAKT project (https://reakt.sh/ & https://www.schiene-m-l.de/) aims at developing new mobility concepts to reactivate rural rail lines. This project will evolve around developing an autonomous on-demand rail vehicle to flexibly provide service on single track lines. A prototype will be build in 1:32 scale as well as a full scale version.
