Bombardier will maintain monorail trains, including 288 cars, the system’s guideway switches and depot equipment.

The 20-year contract was announced by Bombardier Transportation in July, disclosing the name of BTSC.

“Our focus is to ensure the highest levels of passenger safety, comfort and performance and this agreement ensures we will strengthen system performance.”

BTSC chairman Khun Keeree Kanjanapas said: “Our focus is to ensure the highest levels of passenger safety, comfort and performance and this agreement ensures we will strengthen system performance by drawing on Bombardier’s expertise to provide full continuity between delivery and maintenance of our new iconic system.”

The Bombardier Innovia monorail 300 systems will be delivered to the Bangkok pink and yellow lines as part of two separate contracts signed between Bombardier Transportation, Northern Bangkok Monorail (NBM) and Eastern Bangkok Monorail (EBM) in August last year.
