- Inner-Alpine, local and regional service beginning in 2025
- Greater comfort and convenience thanks to low-floor entry and more space for passengers with bicycles, buggies and luggage
Siemens
Mobility Austria GmbH has received an order from ÖBB for additional 27 Siemens
Desiro ML electric trainsets. With this order, ÖBB is continuing to renew its
fleet and investing in modern trains for inner-Alpine transport. ÖBB previously
ordered 246 Desiro ML trainsets and over 200 of them are already in service
throughout Austria.
- More than 500 jobs created by 2028
- Production to start in 2024
- Estimated to grow the state’s
economy by $1.6 billion over 12 years
Siemens Mobility, the
Unites States’ largest passenger rolling stock manufacturer, will expand its
manufacturing footprint by building a $220 million advanced manufacturing and rail
services facility in Lexington, NC. The facility will create more than 500 new
jobs and be one of the city’s largest employers. With the increased production
capacity, Siemens Mobility will fulfill the growing demand for passenger rail in
America by producing some of the most innovative and sustainable passenger
trains in the North American market.
- Unused field data becomes accessible to IT systems with Field Data Enablement (FDE) – without interrupting production or influencing the control system
- No additional sensors or programming are required
- Available as a software and/or hardware solution
In the age of digitalization, data is the new gold. With its new Field
Data Enablement Portfolio, Siemens is now making unused field data accessible
to IT and thus making manufacturing companies more efficient and future-proof.
In many production plants, there’s still lots of hidden potential for
optimization at the field level, for example in automating machines and
systems. Currently only about 20 percent of the total volume of data is used.
Until now, data has been provided to IT systems by the controller, which sends
data from the shop floor to edge or cloud systems. This means data that’s not
available in the controller remains unavailable to IT, such as information
about commissioning. Field Data Enablement now enables the convergence of IT
and OT data with no need to reprogram the controller. This makes OT data
accessible to IT systems that would otherwise remain unused or could only be accessed
with great time and effort and with disruptions in running production plants.

- Pilot operation with climate-friendly battery-powered trains
- Record performance of powerful Mireo Plus B on topographically challenging Westerwald route
- Diesel trains to be replaced by eco-friendly battery trains
Hessische
Landesbahn has opted for three two-car Mireo Plus B battery trains from Siemens
Mobility for their Upper and Lower Westerwald railway pilot project. Both
routes in the Westerwald, with demanding gradients and long non-electrified
sections, require high-performance trains. With its high drive power, the Mireo
Plus B is ideally suited to meet this challenge. Battery-powered trains will
achieve substantial CO2 savings and reduce noise levels and exhaust
emissions in the region when they replace diesel trains.
