We have advised Fenniarail on its continuing green transition via new electric locomotives.
Fenniarail Oy is a private freight transport company which operates on the Finnish railway network. It has seven line locomotives and 22 leased wagons, as well as wagons owned by its customers. Fenniarail's capacity is fully utilised, and to meet its robust client demand, the company has ordered two new Vectron electric locomotives from Siemens Mobility GmbH. The Vectron's energy efficiency and operating flexibility is top-quality: the locomotive regenerates electricity during braking, it has "last mile" diesel units for use during, for example, wagon transfers on non-electrified loading tracks, and its radio remote-control system enables independent shunting without a separate shunting locomotive.
