The Coradia Lint trains will be manufactured at Alstom’s Salzgitter facility in Lower Saxony, Germany. They are expected to be delivered in the second half of 2020.

Alstom Germany and Austria managing director Jörg Nikutta said: “Following the delivery of these trains there will be a total of 33 of our proven and reliable Coradia Lint vehicles in operation in Baden-Württemberg.

“With this order we will once again prove our delivery reliability, accommodating an extremely tight timeframe. As with the delivery for the ‘Ulmer Stern’ network, we will manufacture and deliver the trains in less than a year and a half.”

Once delivered, the trains are expected to operate on the Zollernalbbahn network in southern Germany.
