Estonian carrier soon to start operation in Finland
The first of Operail’s locomotives have arrived in Finland, and the Finnish transport and communications agency Traficom has approved the safety management system of Operail Finland, which forms part of the Estonian Operail group.
A licence was obtained for the company in May to operate a rail transport service on Finnish railway infrastructure.
Freight transport will commence in autumn, said the carrier. It will be providing its freight transport service on the Finnish market using nine Wabtec PowerHaul locomotives that meet all European railway requirements and standards. The first two of these locomotives are already in the country. (ben)
