THE 2022 Innotrans trade fair opened in Berlin on September 20, with three trains made by Stadler for Transport for Wales (Class 756 tri-mode ‘Flirt’ and Class 398 Citylink tramtrain) and Merseyrail (batteryequipped Class 777) amongst those on display.
Many other new trains for use in Europe and further afield were also on show, with key highlights being the first hydrogen trains from Stadler (‘Hydrogen Flirt’ for use in California) and Siemens (‘Mireo Plus H’ for use in Germany), as well as the first vehicle from Deutsche Bahn’s new ICE-L (L=low floor) train being supplied by Talgo.
