TRAVERSO LTD - Free company information from Companies House including registered office address, filing history, accounts, annual return, officers. SOB will then offer hourly services departing on an alternating basis from Basel and Zurich. Based on that SOB will start running long-distance services as of December 2020. In July 2017 SOB and SBB entered a co-operative agreement. In total these three orders are worth around 480 million francs (430 million euros | 480 million USD). In 2017 then SOB ordered a further eleven Traverso trains for the Gotthard mountain route.įinally, in 2018, SOB placed its third order for seven eight-car and five four-car trains for the Bern-Zurich-Chur route. This initial order was worth 170 million francs (152 million euros | 170 million USD). SOB-Stadler ContractĪfter an international tender, SOB awarded the contract for six eight-car trains and five four-car trains for the Voralpen-Express route in 2016. In addition it was on display at InnoTrans 2018. The public saw the new Traverso for the first time almost a year ago, at the roll-out in Erlen on 6 June. Last summer Stadler tested the train’s ventilation system, air-conditioning, insulation and further aspects at temperatures of -30 to +45 degrees in SBB’s climate chamber. For example, they have performed various braking tests on several routes in Switzerland under a range of conditions. Traverso Testingįor the past year Stadler has been putting the new Traverso trains through their paces. The SOB will largely deploy these trains for regional services (S-Bahn) and to complement the Traverso during peak hours. The four-car silver FLIRT trains have 197 seats, of which 22 are in first class and 175 are in second. Each car has between four and six passenger information displays.
