Amtrak has announced upcoming procurement packages to renovate its maintenance facilities in Seattle, Boston, New York City and Washington, DC.
These projects will improve trainset maintenance and repairs and inspection and cleaning processes for Amtrak’s existing and future fleet, including new Acela and Amtrak Airo trains.
“These modern maintenance facilities are an essential part of Amtrak’s plans to introduce new state-of-the-art passenger trainsets around the country.
“Thanks to funding provided by the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA), Amtrak can upgrade our existing rail yards with modern facilities that feature additional working space and enable more efficient maintenance practices.”
Each modernised site will be equipped to provide heavy maintenance, regular maintenance, refuelling, inspections, services and cleaning procedures.
