Newag has delivered the first trains manufactured for Sicily-based FerroviaCircumetnea (FCE) in line with the deal worth €14.76, which was signed in December 2013, the company reported.
The contract for four trains was signed at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport in Rome and represents Newag's first rolling stock order outside Poland. According to the deal, FCE has an option to order six more trains. The company is directly controlled by the ministry's Public Transport Department.
The new trains will operate on the 111km line from Catania to Riposto, which serves towns surrounding Mount Etna.
