CAF MiiRA has entered into a strategic collaboration with transport operator, Euskotren to trial wheel soundproofing solutions for trains in Basque Country, Spain.
This partnership will seek to implement a solution that would reduce the noise generated by rolling stock to improve the quality of life for nearby residents.
CAF MiiRA will contribute its experience with manufacturing wheels, axles, and complete axle systems to help reduce the adverse impact of Euskotren’s services on those living near the tracks.
Julio Galipienzo, R&D Manager at CAF MiiRA said:At CAF MiiRA, we take pride in our commitment to excellence and continuous innovation in the railway industry. This strategic collaboration with Euskotren provides us with an opportunity to combine our capabilities and knowledge to develop advanced solutions that improve the passenger travel experience and reduce environmental impact.
The companies envision that this collaboration will not be limited to this specific initiative and will grow as a long-term alliance to improve rail transportation in the region.
