“It is the business goal of Railpool to become a major player in
passenger transport and with this project we are now taking a step
in the right direction,” commented Dr. Walter Breinl, chairman of
Railpool’s management board.
The rolling stock, to be produced and assembled in Gorlitz
(Germany), will be delivered to DSB between September and December
2009.
67 double-deck coaches are already in operation in Denmark.
Designed for service speeds of up to 160 km/h, the new coaches will
provide a significant increase in carrying capacity.
Last month Railpool placed another order, worth approximately
€196 million, with Bombadier, for the supply of 58 locomotives.
Within three to five years, the company foresees a portfolio of
assets worth up to €500 million.
