By the end of March 2028, two high-speed locomotives will appear on the high-speed railway (HSR) Moscow — St. Petersburg. The speed of trains can reach 400 km/h.
The project will be implemented by the company "Уральские локомотивы". The agreement with Russian Railways has already been successfully signed. The creation of two new trains will cost 12 million rubles.
The holding noted that the design of the electric train will consist of eight wagons with the possibility of connecting two trains. The actual speed of the train — 360 km/h, and the maximum possible — 400 km/h. The journey from Moscow to St. Petersburg will be reduced to two hours.
Passenger service will be divided into 4 classes. For recreation en route, the train will have a children's room, a kitchen, a bar and a multimedia entertainment system.
The preliminary design has been successfully completed. The next stage of development will be the final design of the locomotive.
Earlier it was reported that the project would be completed in 2027. As a result, the deadlines were pushed back.
