      UIC TopRail Photo Competition 2021 themed around “My Secret Rail Spots”

      “Inspiring the world to enjoy sustainable tourism on rail” 


      As part of the European Year of Rail, UIC is organising a photo competition through its TopRail group (rail tourism) under the theme “My Secret Rail Spots”.


      The aim of the competition is for railway employees to share their favourite spots from train journeys in order to inspire future passengers to hop on a train and take the same pictures once it becomes possible to travel again.


      Participants have six months, until 10 September, to upload a picture of their secret railway spot to the PollUnit platform.


      The photo with the most “likes” by the end date wins the competition.


      The winners of the competition will be announced on 26 October during the TopRail Forum.


      The voting session will be open from 11.09.2021 till 11.10.2021.


      The 12 photos with the most “likes” per country will be used to produce a UIC TopRail calendar for 2022 and will be published on the UIC Instagram page under the hashtags:


      #UICTopRail

      #MySecretRailSpot

      #RailTourism

      #EUYearofRail

      #SustainableTourism
