Alstom Italy managing director Michele Viale said: “We are, as always, very proud to be working with our trusted partners FNM and Ferrovienord to provide modern, comfortable and sustainable regional transportation in Italy. In the last ten years, Alstom has delivered 54 regional trains for Lombardy.

“The new generation of Coradia Stream represents the best solution for meeting the increasing needs of both the region’s travellers and the operator.”

The firm noted that the interior and seating arrangements in the new Coradia Stream trains can be modified to suit diverse needs such as additional seats for longer routes and optimised standing space for shorter journeys.
