Trains need saunas and ice baths too! ☀️❄️ Fresh out of an intensive climate chamber in Vienna, this Coradia Max double‑deck train has endured everything from +40 °C heat to −25 °C blizzards, as part of a four week test campaign to ensure reliable operation throughout the seasons. We’ll be delivering a total of 156 of these trains to the Landesanstalt Schienenfahrzeuge Baden-Württemberg and of these tests mark an important milestone on the way to the start of passenger operations. #ClimateChamber #RegionalTrains

What if trains could ‘see’? 👀 The ARTE project, short for Autonomous Regional Train Evolution - is one of our latest projects in Germany and is teaching existing trains to "see" the world around them. Cameras and smart software help them read signals, recognise what’s ahead and keep a smooth, steady rhythm. If something unexpected appears, an operator can instantly take over. In collaboration with LNVG, TU Berlin and the German Aerospace Center (DLR), ARTE shows that automation isn't only possible on new metro lines. More in our bio. #Innovation #RailTechnology

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to drive a light rail vehicle? Mark Young has been a train operator for over 30 years, first driving high‑speed trains in the UK, and now helps operate the Valley Line Southeast LRT in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, operated and maintained by Alstom and its partners. Follow along to see how Mark spends his day: from arriving at the depot before dawn, to greeting his regular passengers, and ending his shift with a deep clean of the LRV. #LightRailTransit #RailwayLife #TrainOperator #PublicTransport

Driverless trains aren’t science fiction - they’ve already been moving millions of passengers around the world for decades. Zoom in on the cow's nose in the photo above to learn more 🐄

The Cairo Monorail, one of the world’s longest driverless lines, is a powerful example of how smart, automated transport can transform an entire region and support more sustainable, reliable mobility for millions. Join us as an Alstom expert breaks down how automation is transforming the rail industry and enhancing train journeys for passengers. 🔗 Go to our bio to learn more!

Light rail systems hold the quiet power of being able to shape how cities move. By blending tracks with bike lanes and green spaces to create vibrant, safer and people-centred mobility, modern light rail systems can seamlessly integrate into city life. Electric trams run quietly, produce zero on‑street emissions, and with catenary‑free technology, preserve historic skylines by removing the need for overhead wires. 📷 Can you guess the cities where these photos are taken? #LightRail #RideWithAlstom

New Coradia Stream electric trains are rolling in and stealing hearts 🚆💘 More comfort, more efficiency, more reasons to love the journey. Romania’s fleet for ARF keeps growing, and we’re proud to be part of it.

Live from Seattle's tramway network! 📹 Our Obstacle Detection Assistance System (ODAS) has just wrapped up successful trials on Sound Transit’s Tacoma‑Link and Link lines using a rapid‑install demokit that doesn’t require any interface with the trams themselves. ODAS can reliably detected obstacles in: 🌧️ heavy rain 🌉 tunnels and bridges ⚡ sudden light changes 🔁 curves and cross‑sections An important step toward safer, smarter light rail - in any weather 🚆🌦️
