How nice it is when the freedom to move isn’t determined by the city limits, but rather by people’s needs.

A transportation network worthy of that name doesn’t just end at the city limits. Because people living in the outlying areas of an urban region have the same needs as those in its center, we offer regional mobility solutions that ensure the perfect, seamless interconnection of individual urban regions.

Our rolling stock and infrastructure solutions enable millions of people to make their way from home to work and back on time and safely – every day. To ensure the smooth coordination of existing and new transportation systems, we also provide comprehensive after-sales service. Including construction and operation from systems and depots, by request. Like our Desiro multiple unit platform, our vehicles also offer the highest level of variability.

Using standard components we are able to meet our customers’ requirements and deliver small order quantities quickly and cost-effectively. We also supply these tried-and-tested components for modernizing and equipping other manufacturers’ vehicles for improved energy efficiency and increased riding comfort. Complete mobilty.

Examples
Great Britain: Over 220 multiple unit cars based on the Desiro platform are in operation in England. In addition, we are an all-around partner for service as well as for modernization of the traction power supply and operations control technology. more
Bulgaria: In cooperation with our local joint venture partner we are providing service and maintenance and thereby ensuring the smooth operation of 50 Desiro Classic trains in this country. more
Austria: Starting 2008, our Viaggio Comfort passenger coach concept will be put into operation as the ÖBB railjet. With a service speed of up to 230 kph and 469 seats, this modular construction principle will enable the operator to achieve the lowest cost per kilometer per seat. more
Switzerland: In response to increasing passenger loadings in the integrated transit network between Zurich and its outskirts, 35 Desiro double-deck trains and much closer headways are providing a lot more speed and comfort. more
USA: That decisive extra for more environmental compatibility: The Oceanside version of our Desiro diesel multiple unit complies with the EUR III emission limits and the stringent Californian emission standard EPA TIER 2. more
India: For the regional railway network of Greater Bombay, we supplied all the electrical equipment such as panto­graphs, transformers, train control units and passenger information systems for 170 three-car multiple units. more
United Kingdom: We are helping to modernize the British transport network. For example, with the electrification project in Wessex, for which new traction supply systems are being installed and the existing ones refurbished. Or in Bournemouth, where we set up the first Simis W interlocking in Britain without interrupting railway operations. more
