French railway vehicles powered by Scania
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
Scania 9-litre engines will power a new fleet of refurbished track inspection vehicles for the French national railway company SNCF.
The #scania engines were selected for use in the 115 refurbished DU84 track inspection vehicles by Socofer, the railway vehicle manufacturing company wich has been appointed by SNCF to oversee the design of the vehicles.
Power and reliability enough for 300 tonnes
SNCF put out tenders in 2013 for a new generation of faster vehicles so powerful that would be able to reach and maintain speeds of 100 km/h and have enough torque to haul up to 300 tonnes on level surfaces.
“The tender listed a range of criteria,” says Jack Morin, Sales Manager at Socofer, “including the dimensions of the engine, its consumption, performance and estimated cost of maintenance. The #scania 9-litre engine stood out in many respects.”
Attractive total operating economy
Alain Paris, Head of Project DU84R, SNCF, says: “Socofer were the only company that presented us with an innovation that immediately aroused our interest. The #scania 9-litre engine’s small size, torque and operating costs provide everything we need.”
With the engines being required to run 1,200 hours per year in extreme conditions, reliability was also an important factor in the choice of #scania. As was Scania’s ability to provide a service network that could respond to any incidents across the whole of France.
“The high cost of the immobilisation of a vehicle encourages us to look for a high level of reliability in our engines and greater responsiveness in the event of an incident from our engine suppliers,” says Paris.
