Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Westinghouse Air Brake Stock In The Last 5 Years

China's high-speed rail progress will take center stage at the US-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable in Beijing, where U.S. firms like Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAB#NYSE">WAB</a>), Caterpillar (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>), Cummins (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMI#NYSE">CMI</a>), L B Foster Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSTR#NASDAQ">FSTR</a>) and 3M Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>) will participate.
What Happened: China&#8217;s high-speed rail development has been progressing at an impressive pace, surpassing the United States. The US-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable is expected to address this issue, with a focus on the challenges faced by American projects due to funding shortages and political pressures, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3318627/chinas-speedy-maglev-train-breaks-records-us-ambitions-go-rails?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">reported </a>by South China Morning Post. 
Industry representatives from both countries will also explore the potential for supply-chain collaboration in the railway sector. The event is organized by&nbsp;the China Council for the&nbsp;Promotion of International Trade.
Wang Yiwei, head of Renmin University&#8216;s Institute of International Affairs in Beijing, attributed the slow progress of high-speed rail in the United States to political and financial constraints. He highlighted President Donald Trump&#8216;s opposition to California&#8217;s high-speed rail project as an example of these challenges.
Wang pointed out that China's success in high-speed rail stems from long-term government planning, strategic investment, and centralized oversight. 
&#8220;Even if high-speed rail projects are not profitable in the short term, China can still build them for strategic reasons,&#8221; stated Wang.

Why It Matters: The U.S.-China Rail Transit Industry Roundtable comes at a time when the U.S. is facing challenges in its high-speed rail projects. In a recent development, the Trump administration decided to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46461319/trump-cancels-4-billion-funding-for-california-high-speed-rail-project-calls-it-disastrously-overpriced">withdraw $4 billion</a> in federal funding from California&#8217;s high-speed rail project, citing excessive costs and unmet promises. This move has further highlighted the difficulties faced by the US in competing with China&#8217;s high-speed rail advancements.
That being said, the US Department of Transportation had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45744869/us-dot-allocates-5-4-billion-for-bridge-infrastructure-fund-scraps-diversity-climate-criteria-for-applicants-report">allocated $5.4 billion</a> for the construction, replacement, or repair of bridges across the U.S. However, the department decided to remove climate change, environmental justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) requirements from the grant application criteria.
These developments raise questions about America&#8217;s ability to keep up with China&#8217;s high-speed rail advancements and the potential impact on the country&#8217;s infrastructure and transportation sectors.

Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation, commonly known as Wabtec Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAB#NYSE">WAB</a>), announced Monday it will acquire Frauscher Sensor Technology Group GmbH in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46269847/wabtec-to-acquire-frauscher-sensor-technology-group" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">675 million euros (~$729 million) all-cash deal</a> to expand its digital rail infrastructure capabilities and strengthen its international presence.
The transaction will add Frauscher&#8217;s train detection and axle-counting systems to Wabtec&#8217;s Digital Intelligence portfolio. The acquisition is expected to close after standard regulatory approvals.
Wabtec anticipates that the acquisition will deliver immediate financial benefits, including improvements in adjusted EPS, margins, and capital returns. Frauscher is projected to generate approximately 145 million euros in revenue in 2025, with growth outpacing Wabtec&#8217;s overall expectations for the next five years.

Wabtec expects to unlock cost synergies over a three-year period, resulting in a projected 12.4x 2025 EBITDA multiple.
Nalin Jain, President of Wabtec&#8217;s Digital Intelligence Group, said the deal strengthens Wabtec&#8217;s global reach, particularly in Europe and India. He emphasized the opportunity to combine Frauscher&#8217;s hardware with Wabtec&#8217;s analytics and lifecycle services to enhance safety and operational efficiency across rail networks.
This acquisition aligns with Wabtec&#8217;s mission to modernize global rail infrastructure through technology, enabling improved asset reliability and sustainable transportation systems.
