Like other European countries, also Finland is preparing to introduce ERTMS.
VR's first brand new diesel locomotives started operating in commercial traffic on 3 May 2023.
On 18 April 2019, VR Group and Stadler signed a contract worth approximately 200 million EUR for the delivery of 60 diesel-electric locomotives, with an option for a further 100 and an additional option for a maintenance contract.
On 1 February 2022, the first Class Dr19 diesel locomotive has arrived in Finland from Stadler València and is to start extensive test runs.
Stadler has selected Teltronic as the provider of the on-board TETRA equipment for the 60 new diesel locomotives for VR.
