17 November 2025 - Alstom, global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, and Ukrainian Railways have announced an agreement to supply 55 Traxx locomotives. The contract will be financed primarily by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (300 million euro) and the World Bank (190 million dollars).
The locomotives will be designed and manufactured at Alstom's Belfort site, France. The delivery will begin in 2027. The contract price also includes training for train drivers, maintenance personnel and some deliveries of parts.

"This contract with Ukrainian Railways represents a significant milestone in our commitment to supporting the modernisation of rail transport in Ukraine. The locomotives we will deliver are tailored to meet the country's specific infrastructure needs, while ensuring high performance, reliability, and energy efficiency. We are proud to contribute to Ukraine's resilience and economic development through sustainable mobility solutions" said Henri Poupart-Lafarge, Chief Executive Officer of Alstom.

"The strategic agreement, which we have signed with Alstom for the supply of 55 modern freight locomotives, is an important step toward solving the critical problem of the outdated traction fleet, with an average age of 46 years, and an investment in economic security and the sustainability of our logistics. This agreement is an important signal of the trust of international partners (URTF Fund of the World Bank, EBRD) in the future of the Ukrainian railway industry. We are grateful to our partners for this support" said Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, CEO of Ukrainian Railways.

As a signatory to the Ukraine Business Compact, Alstom supports Ukraine's economic development and reconstruction. This commitment includes strengthening trade and investment relations, sharing expertise, providing pro bono services, and launching a range of business initiatives.

Tailor-made locomotives providing high performance, reliability, and energy efficiency
The ordered locomotives will have four bogies in a twin B_o-B_o configuration, which means that each axle will be powered by a separate traction motor. The dual-voltage locomotives will be adapted to 3kV DC and 25kV AC traction systems. With power ranging from 7.2 to 9.4 MW, the locomotives will reach speeds of 120 km/h. Their design ensures high operational efficiency, reliability, and energy efficiency, enabling them to haul heavier loads than other solutions currently available on the market. The electric locomotives will use Ukrainian-made security systems and radio stations.
