Contract signed for the delivery of 31 new suspension railcars…
Vossloh Kiepe and the Wuppertaler Stadtwerke (WSW) signed a contract on the 10th of November this year for the delivery of 31 new suspension railcars. The order value is 122 million euros. The new vehicles are scheduled to replace the 1970s wagons by the end of 2015.
Vossloh Rail Vehicles in Valencia will be responsible for the assembly of the vehicles. Just like Vossloh Kiepe, this enterprise also belongs to Vossloh AG in Werdohl. The two subsidiaries recently won a major order from Karlsruhe and have completed successful projects for Majorca and the Spanish provinces of León and Gijón. Both, Vossloh Rail Vehicles and Vossloh Kiepe, will also deliver 13 new tramways to the city of Rostock from end 2013 until spring 2014.
The first suspension railcar for the city of Wuppertal is scheduled to be delivered and tested in the middle of 2014. Two to three vehicles will be delivered monthly thereafter until the end of 2015.
