“I’m most excited about how diagnostics and information management will change the rail industry in the future,” Soora said. “As we move technology forward, it’s an exciting time to be involved in LMOA and ZTR is a valuable contributor.”
Soora has now been appointed Vice Chair of the Diesel Electrical Committee 2016.
