Bombardier Transportation said Wednesday it has received an order for 100 MultiLevel railcars from the New Jersey Transit, valued at approximately $267 million. The order also includes options for up to 79 additional vehicles.
The company said the NJ Transit order is its second with Bombardier for Multilevel cars. Under a 2003 contract, Bombardier provided 329 MultiLevel cars now in widespread operation in New Jersey.
“We are proud to be a partner with NJ Transit in offering rail transportation as a solution for increasing mobility, reducing congestion, and benefiting the environment and the regional economy. This new order for our reliable, safe, and comfortable equipment illustrates the confidence NJ Transit places in Bombardier and our products,” said Raymond Bachant, president, Bombardier Transportation, North America.
