These rail bogies have used the global design concept from Siemens – SF30 Combino Plus.
The factory features a ‘flexible’ production line to cope up with domestic and global rolling stock needs.
It can produce bogies for passengers, coaches, locomotives, electric multiple units, trams, and metros.
Siemens Limited managing director and CEO Sunil Mathur said: “We are glad to announce this significant milestone for Siemens Limited.
