Regional Railways

One aspect of the gaining significance of local public transport is a growing demand for regional services. Fiercer competition among operators responding to invitations to bid for regional routes is one reason why system efficiency is so important. The key factors in emphasizing superiority over competition: efficient, resource-saving equipment with high availability and operational dependability, comfortably fitted out and allowing good driveability, with best-possible systems integration for flexible solutions. Equipment that is customized to the needs of passengers, vehicle owners, and manufacturers yet competitive in price thanks to modular design.
