High Speed

Our company played a major role in supplying the Spanish High-Speed Train (AVE) for the Madrid-Seville line.
Furthermore, following an agreement signed at the beginning of 2002, it will have a significant role in the production of sixteen 350 Km/h High-Speed trains for the future Madrid-French border line.
CAF is also participating in the production of RENFE Shuttle Service Trains, which run at 250/270 Km/h on intermediate sections of the same line.

Finally, and as a more significant example of technological competence in this market segment, CAF designs, develops and produces 250 Km/h Self-Propelled Variable Gauge Trains with BRAVA trucks. This type of train allows better use of rail infrastructures, enabling trains to run on both 1.435m international gauge tracks and 1.668m Spanish gauge tracks, thereby achieving greater service capillarity and versatility.
