Railcare has signed an agreement with Infranord relating to the upgrade of two type TB diesel locomotives. The agreement is worth a total of SEK 30 million. The assignment, which will be carried out by the locomotive workshop in Långsele, comprises an upgrade focused on working environment, sustainability and performance. The work is scheduled to start shortly and is expected to continue for most of 2022.
The assignment involves changing to stage V-engines to ensure that the locomotives satisfy current demands on performance and CO2 emissions, as well as improving the working environment with a new type of driver’s cab and a general upgrade to ensure that vehicles will remain up-to-date and environmentally friendly for many years to come.
“We are delighted that Infranord has chosen us as their supplier for this assignment, as this is entirely in line with our ambition to be an innovative partner for constructing even more sustainable railways,” commented Mattias Remahl, CEO of Railcare Group AB.
