PKP CARGO, the Industrial Development Agency (IDA), and Polski Tabor Szynowy (PTS) have agreed to work together in the rolling stock sector, with a particular focus on restoring the Gniewczyn railcar factory.
The parties involved in the agreement stated that they would prioritize two main factors in their cooperative efforts. The first factor is related to the consolidation of rolling stock assets in the Industrial Development Agency Group, with PTS acquiring assets from PKP CARGO S.A., including real estate and movable property, at the Gniewczyn Lańcucka factory site. The transaction will be funded by IDA and is intended to help restore the Gniewczyn plant's capacity for repairing and producing rolling stock.
