In 2012, we successfully progressed a number of projects from the Innovative Development Program. First of all, we would like to highlight the advanced technology transfer projects: the creation of a world-class rolling stock, the introduction of new transportation control technologies, and the development of energy saving technologies.

JSC “Russian Railways”’ Global Advanced Technology Priorities:

  • Gas turbine locomotive fueled by compressed natural gas
