Rapiscan Systems has been awarded a contract by a railway operator in Eastern Europe to provide rail inspection scanners.
The company will supply the Eagle Rail inspection scanner while providing associated construction and civil works as part of the $5m contract.
The company said the Eagle transmission X-ray cargo and vehicle inspection systems can scan railcars and increase train security and maximise operational effectiveness.
The technologies utilised in the systems range from X-ray and Gamma-ray imaging to advanced threat-identification techniques, such as neutron and diffraction analysis.
