What are the developments in locomotives and wagons?

In TÜLOMSAŞ, which is located in Eskişehir, locomotives and freight wagons are produced, the train set and passenger wagons in TÜVASAŞ in Sakarya and the freight wagons are produced in TÜDEMSAŞ in Sivas. In order to meet the needs of TCDD, a contract was signed with TÜLOMSAŞ for the production of 80 electric outline locomotives. In addition, 20 Diesel Electric (DE) outline locomotive will be manufactured in TÜLOMSAŞ and design studies are in progress.

In TÜVASAŞ, 84 Diesel Train Set (DMU) was started to be manufactured and the first prototype diesel train set produced in this context was put into service between İzmir-Tire. In TÜLOMSAŞ and TÜDEMSAŞ, 818 freight wagons will be manufactured in line with the requirements of TCDD. On the other hand, we are encouraging the development of the railway industry by cooperating with the domestic and foreign private sector while developing the railways with the resources allocated and the projects realized in the past. EUROTEM railway vehicles factory was established in Sakarya with the cooperation of Korea. Marmaray sets are still produced in the facility.

In partnership with TCDD, the Fast Train Scissor Factory (VADEMSAŞ) in Çankırı and VOSSLOH / GERMANY have set up a rail fastener factory in Erzincan and 17 exports to different countries as well as meeting domestic needs. For YHT lines, KARDEMİR rails are produced. In addition to the TCDD's concrete sleeper production facilities in Afyon and Sivas, the number of facilities producing high quality railway sleepers has reached ten.

With a protocol made between TCDD and the Machinery Chemical Industry Corporation, strategic cooperation has been made towards the production of railway wheels locally in our country, and works related to production and establishment of the facility have been continuing by the relevant Authority.
