During the first half of 2014, PKP CARGO invested PLN 241 million (EUR 57.7M) in the rolling stock, which is PLN 106 million (EUR 25.4M) more than during the previous year. PKP CARGO purchases modern intermodal platforms, upgrades locomotives (which in turn lowers maintenance costs) and prepares additional goods wagons for the peak transportation period. The value of investments carried out during the first month could easily cover the costs of building a fleet for a mid-size railway transportation company in Poland.
“We are strengthening PKP CARGO by investing in the rolling stock. The amount we have spent during just the first half of the year could easily cover the costs of building a fleet for a mid-size railway transportation company in Poland. Along with a widely spread operator employment action, investments form the basis of PKP CARGO’s development in the coming quarters. New intermodal platforms, upgraded locomotives, refurbished goods wagons – they all make PKP CARGO’s offer even more competitive, especially in strategic areas of our company’s activity”, said Adam Purwin, CEO of PKP CARGO.
