POLAND’s Mazowieckie Voivodeship has awarded a Zlotys 458.5m ($US 116.6m) contract to Pesa for 16 two-car EMUs for the province’s rail operator Koleje Mazowieckie. The province is applying for funding under Poland’s National Reconstruction and Resilience Plan (KPO).

The contract, which includes maintenance and staff training, is part of Mazowieckie Voivodeship’s investment programme which includes the purchase of 22 trains.

A new depot and workshop will be built in Radom to maintain and repair the type 61WE Regio 160 trains.

The trains will be delivered in 2026 and will operate on services radiating from Radom to Drzewica, Dęblin, Kamienna, and Warsaw, as well as on the 23.5km Dobieszyn - Kozienice line, which will be reopened and to which the province is contributing Zlotys 45m.
