Alstom, global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, has signed a new contract with SJ for the maintenance of night trains. The contract runs for two years and includes maintenance work at depots in Luleå and Stockholm. This is an important step in Alstom's long-term commitment in northern Sweden through increased investment and recruitment of maintenance employees.
The contract covers 75 carriages and 12 RC6 locomotives used on night train routes Stockholm-Umeå-Luleå-Narvik. Alstom has been responsible for night train maintenance since 2013, improving availability and delivering higher operational quality over the years.
The new contract aligns with Alstom's long-term strategy for northern Sweden, where the company has also recently signed a ten-year full maintenance contract for Norrtåg’s fleet. To accommodate growing maintenance needs, Alstom is upgrading its Luleå depot and investing in advanced data-driven asset management solutions, which will be integrated with our Sweden-based Maintenance Performance Centre.
Alstom is the largest supplier to the Swedish train market, with over a thousand trains delivered to the Swedish railways and several major maintenance contracts. Alstom also leads the implementation of the European Railway Traffic Management System (ERTMS) signalling system in Sweden, both onboard and along the tracks.
Alstom is also the market leader in rail services, supporting customers over the entire asset lifecycle with the broadest portfolio of service solutions. Alstom’s FlexCare Perform maintenance services are tailored to customer needs and operational requirements, from technical support with spares to fully outsourced maintenance solutions. Alstom maintains over 35,500 vehicles worldwide and is a trusted partner for servicing both Alstom and non-Alstom rail assets.
