The first passenger trains made in China will be operating in the European Union later this year, writes Railfuture.
The electric trains, built in Zhuzhou by China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation, are currently based in the Czech Republic but are destined to operate international services to Slovakia, Poland and other countries in central Europe.
Czech open access operator LEO Express has the option to buy another 30 of the trains, which are triple voltage.
CRRC has previously sold trains to Macedonia, Georgia and Turkey, which are outside the EU.
