Rock Rail is relying on Siemens Mobility’s comprehensive Railigent X operations and maintenance concept in its work with the Westfalen-Lippe Local Transport Authority (NWL) to further develop regional rail transport in the Network North Westphalia (NNW). At the heart of the project is a full-service contract for 61 battery-electric Mireo Plus B trains, with a term of up to 30 years.
As part of this long-term service package, Siemens Mobility will take full responsibility for the maintenance of the fleet, thereby ensuring almost 100 % availability. The aim is to achieve particularly reliable, efficient and sustainable operations on the Network North Westphalia, where the state-of-the-art battery-powered trains will enter service from December 2029.
