INTRODUCTION
A bilevel car or double-decker coach is a type of rail car that has two levels of passenger accommodation, as opposed to one, increasing passenger capacity (in example cases of up to 57% per car).
When possible, using double-decker carriages can solve capacity issues on a railroad without incurring additional infrastructure costs. These alternatives include longer trains, which require longer station platforms, more trains per hour, which may not be possible due to signalling or safety requirements, and adding additional tracks in addition to the current line. Two deck trains are reported to be more energy efficient,[2] and may have a reduced operating cost per passenger
BILEVEL RAIL CAR MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST
The Global Bilevel rail car market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
In order to update 94 BiLevel commuter train cars for GO Transit, the regional public transportation provider for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) in Ontario, Canada, Alstom has signed a contract with Metrolinx. Refurbishing work on the BiLevel series VII cars, will quickly begin at Alstomâs facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.
Over a two-year period, the mid-life overhaul and improvements of the cars will be carried out; this will necessitate the disassembly of the vehicles, the overhauling of parts, and the production of newly refurbished BiLevel cars for the GO Transit fleet.
They thank Metrolinx for their renewed trust and confidence and for recognising the distinctive industrial expertise of their team in Thunder Bay. They are thrilled with the opportunity to continue their 45-year partnership with GO Transit through the renovation of these BiLevel cars. They look forward to continuing to serve transit users of the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area.â
Updates to the interior will include the installation of updated outlets with USB ports, cosmetic updates to panelling and flooring, a full replacement of customer seating, upgrades to washrooms and service-proven LED lighting. Additionally, by extending the life of these coaches, Metrolinx will have the rail fleet it needs to support service improvements, such as those made possible by the GO Expansion initiative, with the aim of delivering faster and more convenient service to the area.
