• Proxima, the first independent company to enter the high-speed market in France, has signed a firm order for 12 Avelia Horizon very high-speed trains;
• This order includes 15 years of maintenance in a workshop designed and built by Liséa and located in Marcheprime, near Bordeaux.

The total order is worth almost 850 million euros[1]. First deliveries are expected in 2028.

Leveraging on 40 years’ experience of high-speed trains in commercial service, Alstom’s Avelia Horizon very high-speed train is the latest generation of double-decker train capable of travelling at speeds exceeding 300 km/h. It offers great operational flexibility and guarantees high levels of safety and passenger experience. It is made up of two innovative short-length power cars, combining high performance and compactness, and articulated double-decker cars.

Avelia Horizon reduces operating costs. The train has fewer bogies, which account for 30% of the cost of preventive maintenance. With the largest passenger capacity in the market, Avelia Horizon offers great level of service and comfort, and consequently lowers operating costs per seat.

A partner of choice

Proxima, the launch of which has been announced in June 2024, is headed by two leading figures in the railway industry: Rachel Picard and Tim Jackson. It is fully financed by Antin Infrastructure Partners, backed by a consortium of leading French and international banks. Its very high-speed trains would serve Bordeaux, Nantes, Rennes, Angers and Paris, for journeys of 2 hours or less.

A product designed and manufactured in France

10 of Alstom’s 16 French sites will be involved in this project:

• Belfort, for power cars;
• La Rochelle, for passenger cars and project management;
• Villeurbanne, for the control-command computer system, passenger information system and on-board equipment;
• Ornans, for engines;
• Le Creusot, for bogies;
• Tarbes, for traction and electrical cabinets;
• EDC Toulouse, for electrical circuits;
• Petit-Quevilly, for transformers;
• Saint-Ouen, for design and signalling;
• and Valenciennes (CDS Interiors) for the interiors.

[1] Contract booked in the second quarter of Alstom’s 2024/25 fiscal year
