From the news article: 
​Autonomous robots that detect and repair damages on railway tracks may soon become a reality. Now, a Chalmers-developed maintenance robot is the first of its kind in Europe to be tested on a real railway. The innovation is expected to lead to major savings for society as well as increased safety and accessibility in train traffic.
