    Contents

  • Cisalpino
  • Pendolino
  • Hrvatske Željeznice wants to modernise and speed up passenger traffic since currently they are not really able to reach speeds above 160 km/h. There have been tests performed with these two trains. Although shown as very good, they were just tested, not purchased, since a lack of money exists. It is planned to upgrade the track to 200 – 250 km/h in future. These units will most likely not be purchased at the end. A cheaper solution for passenger traffic is sought.
