Abstract
- Railpool, a rolling stock leasing company, has signed an agreement with Regiorail to provide seven electric locomotives for the French market, with an option for four more units. Regiorail currently operates 150 freight trains a week in France for various industries. Fret SNCF, the cargo division of French state railways, is being restructured into two new firms, Hexafret and Technis, to manage traffic and maintenance, respectively, aiming for a turnover of over EUR 700 million in the first year. This restructuring has sparked controversy and staff strikes due to debt repayment issues and European Commission investigations into French state support. [Extracted from the article]
