EUROPE: Alstom has signed a contract to provide full-service maintenance for 60 MaK DE6400 diesel locomotives operated by DB Cargo Belgium and DB Cargo Netherlands.
Alstom sites in Rotterdam and Brugge will be responsible for preventive and corrective maintenance for an initial term of three years, with an option for a further two years.
Alstom will use its Healthhub tool to monitor the state of critical components, which it says is particularly suitable for larger and dispersed fleets.
The agreement announced on August 22 builds on a long-standing relationship between DB Cargo Netherlands and the Shunter rolling stock maintenance business in Rotterdam which was founded in 2003 and acquired by Alstom in 2021.
