Mireo Plus B trains for Hermann-Hesse-Bahn in Baden-Württemberg

Siemens Mobility will additionally take over maintenance of the trains over their entire service life. By being equipped with the latest European Train Control System, the Mireo Plus B trains are equipped for ETCS Level 2 operation.
This new standard offers more track capacity, greater punctuality as well as interoperability in cross-border rail traffic. The reorder option became possible as part of a past order for 20 Mireo Plus B for the Ortenau network in 2020.
