Siemens Mobility begins extensive test program
DB Regio to operate the Rhine Valley network as of 2020
Profitable over the entire lifecycle with enhanced passenger comfort
The first trainset of the new Mireo regional train platform has been completed. In the coming months, a total of eight pre-production trains will be commissioned at the company's Test and Validation Center (PCW) in Wegberg-Wildenrath. Before the train is allowed to operate for the first time in Germany's rail network, an extensive test program must be completed at the PCW. In June 2020, the Mireo is scheduled to begin service in the Rhine Valley network in Southwest Germany that is operated by the DB Regio Regional Business Unit of Deutsche Bahn. DB Regio AG has ordered a total of 24 Mireo trains, the first order Siemens Mobility received for the newly developed platform.
