As a result of Aeroexpress’ financial difficulties, the contract obtained by Stadler for the supply of multiple-unit KISS trains has been modified.
In early 2013, Stadler won the contract to supply 24 double-decker multiple-unit trains for Aeroexpress. Now, Aeroexpress will receive nine 6-carriage and two 4-carriage double-decker multiple-unit trains. These trains will be ready in time for the FIFA World Cup in Moscow and will connect Domodedovo Airport and Vnukovo International Airport to the city centre.
Stadler was not only willing to reduce the number of trains in the contract, but also extended the repayment period and agreed to a grace period. The new financing plan was guaranteed by the Swiss Export Risk Insurance and Gazprombank.
