Alstom has completed the 200th TRAXX Universal locomotive at its Vado Ligure production site in Italy. The locomotive was delivered to Mercitalia Rail, a logistics company within the Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane (FS) Group, which initiated the original order of 40 locomotives in 2017.
The TRAXX Universal platform, a four-axle electric locomotive series, is produced at the Vado Ligure plant, which has been active for over a century. The platform includes models equipped with Alstom’s “Last Mile” feature, allowing operations on non-electrified tracks such as those found in terminals and industrial zones. So far, 115 locomotives have been delivered with this optional feature.
