Netherlands Customs acquires the fastest rail scanner in the world

Since february 2012, a scanner has been checking cargo transported by rail into the Port of Rotterdam as trains travel at speeds of up to 60 kilometres per hour. The train scan is the latest innovation in non-intrusive detection implemented by Netherlands Customs and is currently the most modern train scanning system in the world. Not only is it the fastest in comparison with conventional installations that only allow for train speeds of up to 30 kilometres, it is also the best in term of image quality.
