Alstom and MÁV-Vagon have signed a contract worth EUR 3 million contract for the overhaul of the bogie frames of 25 Traxx electric locomotives, part of the MÁV-Start fleet. The project, which is expected to be completed over 3 years, aims to improve the quality and reliability of the rolling stock, and increase the safety and efficiency of rail transport.
The first shipment of the engines to be renovated left Szolnok on December 12, 2023. After the repairs, they are expected to arrive back in the first quarter of next year and be installed in the renovated bogies.
The Traxx locomotives are the youngest electric locomotives in the MÁV-Start fleet and together they have already covered more than 60 million kilometers.
