Tver Carriage Works (TVZ), part of Transmashholding, signed the first contracts with the Federal Passenger Company (FPC) for the supply of single-deck and double-deck coaches in 2017 and 2018. Under the contracts, FPC will receive in total 515 single-deck coaches (287 in 2017 and 228 in 2018), and 106 double-deck coaches (41 in 2017 and 65 in 2018) for a total amount of RUB 29.5 billion (EUR 463 million ).
The contracts provide for the supply of all types of couches produced by TVZ except for double-deck seating coaches and special dining cars to accompany them.
The signed contracts constitute the first experience of TVZ in executing long-term contracts with the FPC, which is the largest operator of passenger coaches hauled by locomotives in Russia. Transmashholding is confident that signing such contracts will strengthen the relationship with the carrier and improve the work planning at the coach manufacturing plant.
