Gniewczyny agrees DM35 million rolling stock deal

The Gniewczyny rolling stock factory yesterday signed a DM35 million contract for the supply of 400 coal wagons to German Railways' cargo carrier, Deutsche Bahn Cargo. The contract, due for completion by the end of next year, is the largest in the Southeast Poland-based Gniewczyny's history. It began supplying Deutsche Bahn Cargo with rolling stock last year, when it delivered 54 modern coal wagons. The cooperation has continued this year, with Gniewczyny supplying the German carrier with a further 200 wagons. Currently, Gniewczyny is also manufacturing wagon frames for the Australian railways. Its majority shareholder is the NIF No. 7 Kazimierz Wielki. (Rzeczpospolita, p. B3) M.T.K.
