They're already taking delivery of 30 new locos from Newag.| assume new locos part of the deal? Shame, would like to have seen push pull EP07s!!!!
Thanks for that. Probably nail in the coffin of the EP07s then? I know there's lots of them but surely new units and this stock will see them off?They're already taking delivery of 30 new locos from Newag.
There's bidding to upgrade EP07's to 160km/h they'll be around for a while I think - although it's unclear whether anyone will actually bid:Thanks for that. Probably nail in the coffin of the EP07s then? I know there's lots of them but surely new units and this stock will see them off?
should PKPIC order Stadler Girunos EC250 to supplement their Pendolino Fleet for EIP services?Push-Pull (not EMU) - that really sounds like a deal for Pesa (although I suppose Skoda or Bombardier could also bid).
Interesting that they're not asking for EMU's, but that would really restrict it to Stadler and Bombardier. (That would e.g. allow for the flexibility of having a mixed single/double deck with Flirt+Kiss - OTOH push-pull lets you attach single deck carriages for peak services.)

Shame if they do get it, those PESA Darts that PKP have are horrible things.
