Siemens AG said Thursday that it had received an order from
America's passenger rail company Amtrak for 50 of its
diesel-electric passenger locomotives.
The German conglomerate said the order is part of a $2 billion
contract that includes a previous order of 75 locomotives that
entered service earlier this year, and an agreement for technical
support, spare parts, and material supply.
The 125 locomotives, which will be in service by 2029, feature
more efficient engines and emit fewer carbon emissions than older
locomotives, Siemens said.
