Siemens Transportation Systems - High Speed and Suburban Trains

Siemens Transportation Systems is one of the leading international single source suppliers of innovative and sustainable rail solutions for mass transit, regional and main line services: covering signaling and control systems, traction power supplies and rolling stock as well as turnkey systems and forward-looking service concepts.

HIGH SPEED AND LONG-DISTANCE VEHICLES THAT DELIVER

When we develop and produce trains for our customers, we're always thinking first and foremost of the people who use them.

With our personal commitment and technical expertise, we can guarantee you the best possible system integration, with all of the individual technologies, modules and components that go into our products working together in perfect harmony.

The result is a train with a convincing design and winning details that is so safe, functional and reliable that you not only see it but feel it as well.

Our trains give passengers an attractive and comfortable travel experience to remember and set standards around the globe for technology and efficiency. We use innovative components, modules and production methods to minimize lifecycle costs. To ensure that our trains are cost-effective in every way, we are always focused on low power consumption and the lowest life cycle costs.

VELARO® TRAINS FOR HIGH SPEED AND LONG-DISTANCE SERVICES

Speed is of the essence – in business and on the track. So high speed is one decisive factor for creating attractive offerings that will get passengers to climb aboard. The key to success is to cover even greater distances in even shorter times, even across international borders.

To create a winning system, we accept no compromises for the individual elements: only top-grade materials and the intelligent combination of the best available electronic, electrical and mechanical components deliver the desired outcome – reliable technology combined with fascinating design and impressive comfort.

Based on these principles, we construct trains that satisfy passengers, investors and rail operators alike – in both high speed and long-distance services. With our new VELARO® high speed star, and the VENTURIO® vehicle concept, we offer you the ideal answer to your needs, built using our extensive experience as a supplier of ICE® trains to the Deutsche Bahn AG.

DESIRO® TRAINS - FROM MAINLINE REGIONAL SERVICES TO SUBURBAN RAIL

Today's regional services need to meet a whole host of different demands, depending on the region, operator and connections to other forms of transport. What they all have in common, though, is the need to combine the attractiveness expected by passengers with the cost-effectiveness demanded by operators.

This challenge can only be met with intelligence, as uniquely provided by our DESIRO® concept.

You can cover a broad range of requirements with the DESIRO family of trains. The train sets can be finished just as easily for mainline regional services as for suburban traffic. This applies equally to the number of coaches and seats, and to the level of comfort you want to offer your passengers. Bistros, toilets, multi-purpose areas and air conditioning are all possible, while low noise levels, low-level entrances, modern passenger information systems and transparent, appealing interior designs are always standard.

Our regional traffic concept is just as flexible when it comes to train safety, gauge and traction: the units can be fitted with diesel motors or electric motors running off DC or AC power supplies.

Whichever DESIRO variant you choose, modern series-produced components and consistent lightweight construction will give you top energy efficiency, excellent reliability and low maintenance costs.
