Hellenic Train: Tests on the Greek railway network for the new Coradia Stream

Hellenic Train has initiated the certification process for new electric trains, following the arrival of the Coradia Stream test train in Thessaloniki.

Hellenic Train has embarked on a significant investment plan aimed at renewing its rolling stock by starting the type certification process for new electric trains. The Coradia Stream test train has recently arrived in Greece and is currently stationed at the company’s depot in Thessaloniki, where it will remain when not engaged in test runs as part of the approval process for new rolling stock.

The Coradia Stream train will undergo extensive testing under real operational conditions to ensure it meets the necessary certification requirements from both national and European authorities. This meticulous process emphasizes the collaboration between Hellenic Train, Alstom, and relevant regulatory bodies, ensuring that the new trains comply with all safety standards currently in place.

This initiative not only represents Hellenic Train's commitment to enhancing its fleet but also reflects a broader effort to modernize Greece's railway infrastructure. The successful certification and introduction of the Coradia Stream trains could lead to improved service reliability and efficiency, ultimately benefiting passengers and contributing to the development of sustainable transportation solutions in Greece.
