Whether they manufacture these from Bombardier’s plant in Savli, Gujarat or from Alstom’s plant in Sri City, Andhra Pradesh remains to be seen. Once awarded, Line-4’s new trains’ design is expected to be officially revealed by MMRDA or leaked out in about 9 months.Īlstom is expecting to close out their acquisition of Bombardier Transportation on January 29, following the receipt of all regulatory approvals in December 2020, so this is essentially a win for them. Back in May 2020, they won the 82.15 km Delhi – Meerut RRTS line’s rolling stock contract for 210 coaches (30×6 + 10×3), and in June they won Kanpur and Agra Metros’ 201 (67×3) coach contract. This will be their 3rd major win in India in the past 8 months. If no extraneous issues arise during financial evaluation, then following KfW’s approval, Bombardier will go on to be awarded with Line-4/4A’s MRS2 rolling stock contract in the coming weeks.
