Wabtec’s 6000 hp diesel-electric locomotive – the first of its kind in India – is currently undergoing testing on Indian Railways track. It will shortly enter revenue service.
Wabtec’s Marhowra Factory
The workforce at the Marhowra factory comprises 75 percent men and 25 percent women. Together with international and local suppliers, Wabtec says it has created an integrated ecosystem, allowing it to ramp up local manufacturing quickly, thereby creating more than 5,000 direct and indirect jobs across India.
Roza Maintenance Shed
The Roza maintenance shed has completed the regular maintenance of 100 locomotives. Furthermore, it has trained in excess of 1800 Indian Railways locomotive pilots via the company’s training institute. The service team, together with Wabtec’s real-time monitoring and diagnostic centre at Roza, works to keep Indian Railways locomotives reliable.
