The purpose of AERRL is to promote interoperable, sustainable, efficient and safe passenger and cargo rolling stock transport for the European railways. AERRL is also supporting an increased open access to railway infrastructure.

The organization is open to all companies or persons likely to contribute to the pursuit of its objectives.
