Alstom: Coradia iLint train completes first trial.

(CercleFinance.com) - Alstom is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed its first 80 km/h test on the Coradia iLint train on its own test track in Salzgitter (Lower Saxony, Germany).


"An extensive test campaign will be conducted in Germany and Czech Republic in the coming months before the Coradia iLint performs its first passenger test runs on the Buxtehude-Bremervörde-Bremerhaven-Cuxhaven (Germany) route, at the beginning of 2018." the transport group said.

Trials that are underway in Salzgitter will last 4 weeks. They are intended to confirm the stability of the energy supply system based on coordinated interaction between the drive, the fuel cell and the battery of the vehicle. The braking power is also being tested to check the interface between the pneumatic and the electric brake.
