The new ALn 668-3310

On 6 October 2021, as part of the GNL Conference at the RFI circuit in Bologna S. Donato, was held the presentation of the first train converted from diesel to LNG&BioGNL: the ALn 668-3319. The project, resulting from the agreement between FS Italiane-Snam-Hitachi Rail, aims to transform part of the current rolling stock of Fondazione FS by reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 20%.

The ALn 668s, whose certification process was conducted by Italcertifer, will be characterized by the historical livery and will make their first journey in 2022 on the Sulmona-Carpinone tourist railway line.
