Wabtec Corp. subsidiary MotivePower Inc. recently obtained a $12.7 million contract to build five commuter locomotives for Albuquerque, N.M.’s Mid-Region Council of Governments, which plans to build a commuter-rail line in the region.
MotivePower will provide its MPXpress® locomotives, spare parts and training. The units feature high-horsepower engines designed to increase acceleration, and reduce fuel usage and emissions. The locomotives also feature microprocessor controls and comply with the current crashworthiness standards.
