Tulpar-Talgo passenger cars will become more comfortable as they become large, Tengrinews reports citing the press service of Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, Kazakhstan'a national railway company.
Astana-based Tulpar-Talgo plant owned by a joint Kazakhstan-Spanish company Tulpar-Talgo has mastered the final stage of production of rail passenger cars using the technology of the Spanish company Рatentes Talgo SLU.
“This year we plan to launch a project that is aimed at producing around 600 rail cars with a wide body that will create more comfort for passengers. The plant has been producing passenger cars with a body width of 2.95 m. Now the newly manufactured railroad cars will have the body width of 3.2 m. 21 trains (603 carriages) with wide body are expected to be assembled in 2016 to 2019,” the company’s statement said.
Apart from being comfortable, Tulpar-Talgo trains are much environmentally friendlier than the trains that have been used in the country since the Soviet era. They are heated by the power generated from its own power station wagon, which significantly reduces emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere.
