Moscow, November 9 – By the end of the year, the fleet of modern Ivolga 4.0 trains on the Yaroslavl line will be expanded to 15 units. This is part of a large-scale rolling stock renewal program being implemented jointly with the Central Suburban Passenger Company (CPPK) and Russian Railways.
The Yaroslavl route will become faster and more comfortable: new Ivolga trains have appeared on the Yaroslavl route.
Comfort, speed and safety:
• The first “Ivolga 4.0” have already hit the roads this year.
• By 2030, it is planned to purchase 92 new trains.
• The average age of the train fleet will be reduced by 5 times, to 3.5 years.
• The new trains are 20% more spacious, provide 15% faster and more comfortable boarding, and have a 45% wider aisle, which is especially convenient during rush hours.
• The upgrade will allow the transportation of more than 300 thousand passengers daily.
Implementation stages:
• To launch new trains, a comprehensive check and adjustment of all systems is carried out.
• Particular attention is paid to the training of drivers, who undergo additional training.
• A new division of the Tver Carriage Works has been opened in Pushkino to monitor the technical condition of trains and carry out routine maintenance.
Comprehensive development of the direction:
• Additional routes were built from Moscow to Pushkino, which reduced train waiting times by a third.
• A transport hub was built in Rostokino for convenient transfer from the Yaroslavl direction to the Moscow Central Circle.
"The upgrade of the Yaroslavl line will allow even more residents and visitors to the capital to use fast and comfortable transportation," noted the Moscow Transport press service.
