Since 2014, the region ordered 33 Coradia Polyvalent for Régiolis, brings its order up to 46 trains, representing a global investment of more than EUR 330 million.
The first Coradia Polyvalent trains for Occitanie entered commercial service in May 2014 on the lines linking Toulouse to Latour-de-Carol and Mazamet.
