Petrolesport Unloads New High-Speed Sapsan Train

  • August 9, 2021, Petrolesport terminal, part of Global Ports group, has unloaded the railcars of a new high-speed Sapsan train. It was the first time such trains were handled in the Big Port of St. Petersburg. Special technology was used to handle the complex project cargo, which made it possible to promptly reload the ten railcars from the sea vessel to the railroad track, Global Ports said.

    The new Sapsan is the first from a new lot of 13 high-speed trains manufactured by Siemens Mobility for Russian Railways. The train arrived at Petrolesport on 9 August 2021 from the German port of Lübeck by a ro-ro regular service of Transfennica. After unloading from the vessel, the ten railcars were rolled onto the railway track and mechanically coupled into a single train directly in the port.

    From Petrolesport, the new Sapsan train will go to the Metallostroy depot, where the railway service will carry out commissioning and a series of tests before launching the trains on the route.

    The other 12 new high-speed trains are also planned to be transshipped via Petrolesport terminal. The commissioning of this new lot of trains will almost double the Sapsan fleet in Russia up to 29 trains.
