“Our Desiro
ML trains are especially popular with passengers as well as rail operators,” said
Albrecht Neumann, CEO Rolling Stock at Siemens Mobility. “This order for 27
additional Desiro ML trains brings the Siemens fleet in Austria to a total of
over 270. We are delighted that ÖBB is continuing to choose our Desiro ML for
the modernization of its fleet.”
The new
trains will offer even more space, comfort and convenience on inner-Alpine
routes when they enter service in 2025. This will make it even more attractive
for passengers and commuters to switch from private transport to rail.

Maximum speed: 160 km/h
Train length: 75 m (three-car trainset)
Seating capacity: around 220

2 toilets, one of which is barrier-free and has a baby-changing table
2 wheelchair spaces
