Transdev Orders 64 Stadler FLIRT 160 Trains to Operate on Hanover S-Bahn Network

Transdev Group, Germany’s biggest private rail and bus operator, was awarded the contract to operate Hanover’s suburban railway system following a Europe-wide tender process. As of December 2021 its subsidiary NordWestBahn will be operating the ten suburban railway lines in and around the city, which is 385km in length. This contract has been awarded for a period of 12.5 years, running until June 2034, and is worth in excess of 1.5 billion euros. Hanover is the capital city of the German federal state of Lower Saxony. In one year, the trains on these ten suburban lines travel a total of 9.3 million kilometres, transporting more than 30 million passengers. In order to fulfil this contract, Transdev has ordered 64 electric Stadler FLIRT 160 trains to accompany the 13 existing Stadler trains that are already part of the fleet. This order is worth around 320 million euros for Stadler.
