Alstom has been awarded a contract to supply 8 Coradia Lint regional trains to DB Regio in Germany. The total value of the contract is around EUR 40 million, which was booked in Q4 of fiscal year 2015/16. All trains will be delivered by March 2019 for operation on the diesel network of the Nuremberg region. These trains will complement the existing fleet of DB Regio consisting of 27 trains delivered by Alstom in 2008. This contract marks the 900th Coradia Lint sold by the company.
Manufactured in Alstom’s biggest site located in Salzgitter (Germany), the Coradia Lint trains ordered by DB Regio have a total capacity of 370 people each, including 170 seats. They can reach a maximum speed of 140 km/h. To maximize flexibility and convenience, the 8 new trains will be designed to match the existing fleet of the customer and ensure later coupling of the trains.
