WARSAW: Rail freight carrier PKP Cargo intends to produce its own coal transport cars instead of buying them, and has already signed a letter of intent on the matter with one of the biggest global rolling stock producer Greenbrier Europe.
The latter will provide the technology and machinery, and the former – staff and infrastructure. Launching a production line will cost PLN 11.5 million. A prototype is to be ready in half a year. Eventually PKP Cargo wants to make 500 cars a year.
