Engineering
Our unrivalled in-house engineering capability, with one third
of our staff being rail engineers and encompassing all key engineering
disciplines, allows us to offer a range of maintenance services
for our trains in the UK and continental Europe, as well as comprehensive
technical support to our clients for so long as they have our trains
in service in their operations.
We deploy our technical know-how to help maximise the reliability
of our trains and achieve cost-efficiencies for our customers.
Angel Trains has invested heavily in research and development.
Recent innovations include:
- improvements to the adhesion capability of commuter trains in
the United Kingdom
- the development of an 'air cycle' air conditioning system for
passenger vehicles also in the United Kingdom
- the installation of ETCS signalling system on freight locomotives
for operations on dedicated freight routes in the Netherlands
