- New design
for better orientation
- Free tate
of Bavaria invests over two billion euros in new trains
- First trains will be delivered at the end of 2028
At InnoTrans, the international trade fair
for transport in Berlin, Bavarian Transport Minister Christian Bernreiter today
presented the exterior design for the new Munich S-Bahn trains. Heiko Büttner,
DB Group Representative for the Free State of Bavaria and CEO of S-Bahn München,
together with Karl Blaim, Managing Director and CFO of Siemens Mobility,
reported on the progress of the project. The first of a total of 90 new trains
from manufacturer Siemens Mobility are to be delivered successively beginning
at the end of 2028. The exterior design of the new S-Bahn vehicles is based on
a modern diamond pattern and the colours white and ‘Bahnland Bayern’ blue. Bavarian Transport Minister
Christian Bernreiter: “In future, the new Munich S-Bahn trains will show
who is behind them: the Free State of Bavaria, which is investing more than two
billion euros in this project. It is therefore only logical that the most
modern S-Bahn trains in Germany will be travelling in the design of our local
transport brand. But it's not just about new colours, because the exterior
design of the S-Bahn trains will also make it as easy as possible for
passengers to find their way around in future.”
