Naples, new trains on Metro Line 1 put into operation
“Anm has been committed for months to supporting the commissioning of the new trains of Line 1 of the Metro. In any case, the primary activity is the responsibility of the manufacturer for carrying out the tests and issuing the documentation and files requested by the Ministry of Transport. There are no infrastructural or network problems with regard to circulation on the line. Activities are proceeding normally at the speed permitted by the current health emergency”. This is what a note from the Neapolitan mobility company states in relation to the new trains on Line 1 of the metro.
"Currently, four trains have been delivered by Caf to Azienda Napoletana Mobilita' - it is written in the note - In the commissioning activities, at the positive conclusion of all the static and dynamic tests, it will also be necessary to carry out a pre-exercise of 5.000 kilometers that Anm is able to carry out in 12 days. However, obtaining the technical clearance provision from the Ministry before allowing the public to operate is essential. Some technical problems that require interventions under the competence of Caf have been found.
The Iberian company is working on it, compatible with the health emergency and for the solution of which the Municipality and Anm have also requested the increase of specialized technical resources in the field, which should arrive shortly, as Caf has promised”. “In the meantime, the Spanish company, which has already delivered four trains, has others ready in Spain that will be delivered as the depot tracks are cleared of old trains no longer in use. Anm has guaranteed and is guaranteeing all the collaboration within its competence. Finally, for the commissioning of the trains, as previously stated, the documentation of the Ustif will have to be completed, which is actively working on it” concludes the note from Anm.
