History

Uralskiye lokomotivy LLC (Verkhnyaya Pyshma, Sverdlovsk region), joint venture of Group Sinar and Siemens AG concern, is created on the production site of the Ural plant of railway mechanical engineering on July 1, 2010.

The plant produces cargo electric locomotives of a direct current with series 2ES6 SINARA collector traction drive (the first prototype was released in December, 2006) and cargo trunk electric locomotives with the asynchronous traction GRANITE drive of series 2ES10 in lots.

The start was given to assembly of the first Russian-German electric locomotive of new generation with the asynchronous traction drive of series 2ES10 on July 28, 2010 within official opening of the Ural Locomotives enterprise. The prototype of a cargo trunk electric locomotive 2ES10 which received the name GRANITE was released on November 18, 2010.

On September 7, 2011 JSC Russian Railways, Gruppa Ltd Sinar and Siemens AG concern signed the delivery contract of 1200 cars of electric trains Swallow (Desiro RUS type) for the Russian Railway from 2015 to 2020. The total cost of the contract will be more than 2.1 billion euros. Passenger electric trains of "Desiro" are used for service of the suburban message and belong to new generation of the facilitated modular structures.

Production of Swallows is organized on Uralskiye lokomotivy LLC. According to the contract during 2015 Uralskiye lokomotivy will release 30 five-carriage electric trains. Originally depth of localization will be 35%, in process of contract performance the level of localization will be brought to 80%. More than 80 enterprises of the Russian industry will participate in cooperation deliveries of the completing components. When implementing this large-scale project only on Uralskiye lokomotivy it is going to create about 1500 new jobs.
