Brussels, March 4 2026 - Alpha Trains and Lineas sign a lease agreement for two Stadler EURO9000 locomotives. The locomotives form part of Alpha Trains’ 2023 order of 12 Stadler EURO9000 locomotives, supporting the transition to zero-emission rail freight on the North-South corridor.
Alpha Trains, Europe’s leading leasing company for locomotives and trains, and Lineas, a leading European rail freight operator and a strategic logistics partner for the industry, have further deepened their long-standing partnership with the signing of a leasing agreement for two state-of-the-art Stadler EURO9000 locomotives. The agreement marks another milestone in Alpha Trains’ commitment to accelerating the shift towards low- and ultimately zero-emission rail transport across Europe and supports Lineas’ strategy in offering tailored solutions to its customers.
The two locomotives are part of Alpha Trains’ strategic order of 12 Stadler EURO9000 locomotives placed in 2023, reflecting the company’s long-term investment in modern, energy-efficient and future-ready traction solutions. The first locomotive is expected to be delivered as early as March 2026. The locomotives will be governed under a full-service lease provided by Alpha Trains, with maintenance and technical support delivered by Stadler Rail Services, ensuring high availability and reliable performance throughout the lease term. This step significantly extends the collaboration between the two companies, driving improvements in both efficiency and sustainability across international rail freight operations. (....)
