Transmashholding unveils St. Petersburg metro train concept

Transmashholding has presented the next generation concept of St. Petersbrg metro train at SmartTransport-2019.

With the active participation of St. Petersburg metro specialists, Transmashholding developed a number of technical solutions for the new train, in particular a “smart” window which can show the video image.

As part of the new state-of-art-train, an original exterior and interior design was created.

The new carriages have intelligent lighting, which can be changed during the day (cold in the morning, warm in the evening), new system ventilation and larger doors, as the width of the doorway will be increased up to 1400 or 1600 mm.

The new train will be equipped with sockets, Wi-Fi modules, as well as three types of screens which can be placed in the passenger compartments, showing an interactive metro map, door guides with creeping lines, screens for entertainment and information programmes. For passengers with reduced mobility and parents, the trains have special places.

The cabin of the new train is fitted with a control panel, air conditioning, a set of systems that provide noise reduction, and a modern assistance system that will monitor the driver’s health.

The train will be equipped with modern asynchronous traction, improving energy efficiency. The train is equipped with the latest data transmission system. TMH says that there is a technical possibility of transferring a new train to an unmanned mode.

The new train can be modified according to city’s and metro company’s proposals and requirements.

It is expected that in case of entering into an agreement with the Petersburg Metro, the trains will be manufactured Oktyabrsky electric car-repair plant located in the city.
