[PT] Medlog invests in 4 EURO 4000 locomotives

Home Stadler Rail Valencia EURO 4000 Alpha Trains Iberia EURO 4000 [PT] Medlog invests in 4 EURO 4000 locomotives

Transportes em Revista reports that Portuguese railfreight operator Medlog (formerly known as CP Carga) has signed a contract for the delivery of four new EURO 4000 locomotives. The locomotives will be used to support the expansion of the company and have mainly been ordered for services between Portugal and Spain. With the four EURO 4000s, international services will no longer have to change locomotives at the border, saving time and improving the service to the customer.


The locomotives will not be owned outright by Medlog. Leasing company Alpha Trains will become owner of the vehicles and will then lease them to the Portuguese operator. With the deal, Alpha Trains increases its fleet of Iberian-gauged EURO 4000 locomotives to 28. Delivery is scheduled for 2017.
