VR FleetCare and ABB collaborate to refurbish Norske tog's traction motors, reviewing EL 18 locomotive maintenance progress in Helsinki and Lappeenranta during a Finland visit.

This is an important development for Nordic security of supply, as the procurement of the wagons will enable heavy defence equipment to be transported by rail.

The metro refurbishment project has been part of VR FleetCare’s strategy to expand as a provider of demanding overhauls for rolling stock.

VR FleetCare has entered into a large maintenance agreement for components with the Danish train operator Nordjyske Jernbaner A/S. The contract covers maintenance of bogies and pneumatic components of the Alstom Coradia LINT series trains during the years 2024–2029.

In a comprehensive track infrastructure condition monitoring pilot project, commercial trains will be utilised to collect data from various rail sections on a daily basis.

Estonian railway company Elron has renewed maintenance contract of its Flirt train bogies with VR FleetCare after an international tender.

VR FleetCare's service operations are expanding to the maintenance of air conditioning systems in light rail vehicles in the Helsinki metropolitan area.

VR FleetCare and SJ AB have signed an agreement to modernise the X40 train fleet, with the aim of extending the fleet’s life cycle and improving the travel comfort of customers.

VR procures nine sleeper coaches and eight car-carrier coaches from Škoda Transtech Oy. The new rolling stock will be in use by the end of 2025. The value of the procurement is approximately EUR 50 million.

The Finnish rolling stock maintenance company VR FleetCare has won the tender organised by Helsinki Metropolitan Area Rolling Stock Ltd for the refurbishment of Flirt electric train bogies.
