Skånetrafiken, a public transport operator in the south of Sweden, has ordered 25 Coradia Nordic trains from Alstom.
Alstom will be responsible for testing and commissioning the new four-car trains, which will be manufactured in Salzgitter, Germany.
Magnus Andersson, train manager at Skånetrafiken, said: “The Påga-train (Pågatågen) has been an institution in Skåne’s public transportation for 30 years.
“The new generation delivered by Alstom since 2010 is a train that suits the travellers of Skåne perfectly: a high level of performance and passenger comfort and an attractive design.
“With the new trains we are preparing to meet future expansions in the railway network and number of travellers.”
Passenger numbers on Pågatågen services are predicted to rise by 5-6 per cent in the coming years.
