I treni per pendolari della riuscita linea di elettrotreni serie 430 entreranno in esercizio fra breve sulla rete RMV (Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund)

 

BERLINO, GERMANIA - (Marketwire - 23 dicembre 2011) - DB Regio AG ha confermato a Bombardier Transportation l'ordine di 90 elettrotreni della serie 430. La commessa, del valore di circa EUR 500 Mio (USD 648 Mio), va ad aggiungersi agli 87 elettrotreni della serie 430 già ordinati per la regione di Stoccarda e attualmente in corso di produzione.

 

DB Regio won a European-wide tender from the Rhein-Main-Verkersverbund (RMV) in November 2011, securing the transportation contract for the Rhein-Main rapid transit network. The new 90 four-car electric multiple units of the 430 series are to be used in the suburban-network Kleyer, covering more than 7.2 million train kilometres a year, from December 2014 onwards. The trains are able to accelerate rapidly and can reach speeds of up to 140 km/h during operation.

 

The electric multiple units of the 430 series have 24 electric swivel-sliding doors, enabling easier and more rapid passenger flow. The trains will also provide a spacious multi-purpose area to ensure greater convenience for passengers travelling with bicycles. Energy-saving indirect LED lighting integrated in the luggage racks enhances the interior ambience. All coaches are joined together by convenient walkways. Information on connecting trains is displayed in real-time via a modern passenger information system with a monitor in each of the entrance areas.

 

Video monitoring cameras, combined with an open layout which allows a clear view of the train interior over its entire length, help increase safety and security for all passengers. The vehicles will be built in Germany by Bombardier and by Alstom prior to final delivery in 2014.

 

"The sleek, modern design of the new multiple mean we can provide mobility for the future, while ensuring the highest level of reliability combined with comfort and hospitality. That's just the concept tomorrow's regional transit has been looking for," said Dr. Klaus Baur, Chairman of the Management Board Bombardier Transportation Deutschland.
