AB Transitio, Sweden
Rolling stock operator AB Transitio has acquired on behalf of MÄLAB 33 four-car, double-decker electrical multiple units of the
DOSTO model from Stadler. In Sweden, the trains have been given the type designation ER1 and will be delivered in 2019 and 2020.
The trains will service the lines Stockholm – Eskilstuna – Örebro, Stockholm – Katrineholm – Hallsberg, Stockholm – Nyköping –
Norrköping and Sala – Västerås – Eskilstuna – Norrköping. Boasting a top speed of 200 km/h, the trains have been specially adapt-
ed for operation in Swedish winters. They are designed to run at minus 40 degrees and a depth of 80 cm snow on the track. Some
examples of the design solutions incorporated to handle this are inter-carriage connections with twin bellows, large snow ploughs,
efficient floor and wall heating systems and specially adapted insulation. The underframes of the trains have been designed to
minimize freezing. Each train can accommodate 333 passengers, who can sit comfortably in adjustable seats fitted with individual
reading lights and dual power outlets. There is storage space to suit normal sized trolley suitcases under the seats. To increase
comfort, the new trains have been built 12 cm wider and 10 cm higher than the DOSTO trains that were previously delivered.
