CAF has opened its new service facilities at Lowry Park, Manchester, a city strategically located for CAF’s rail services business in the United Kingdom, given its proximity to the operations of some of its key customers.
The new facilities, covering an area of 5,000 m², represent an investment of 10 million pounds. Maintenance and overhaul work will be carried out there on various key components such as wheels and bogies, with plans to expand the scope of their activities in the near future, with the aim of supporting the next generation of rail services.
The increased capacity provided by the new facilities will ensure faster response times and greater fleet reliability, delivering safer and more efficient maintenance services, thereby contributing to the long-term performance of these fleets.
This investment reflects CAF’s long-term commitment to the United Kingdom rail industry, where, in addition to its modern train manufacturing plant in Newport (Wales), it currently manages 14 maintenance contracts for various clients within its services business.
