Siemens Mobility to supply ATO over ETCS for three São Paulo commuter lines

Siemens Mobility designs, supplies, installs and commissions a digital signalling system with automatic train operation over ETCS Level 2 for the client Trivia Trens and supports the initial operation; the scope includes a traffic management system, interlockings, a radio block centre and trackside equipment. Siemens also equips 107 trains, six MRS and three TRIVIA locomotives and 17 auxiliary vehicles with Trainguard ETCS on-board units; a two-year warranty and the supply of spare parts are included.

Trivia Trens has commissioned Siemens Mobility to provide a digital signalling system enabling automatic train operation over ETCS Level 2 on lines 11-Coral, 12-Sapphire and 13-Jade of São Paulo's local transport network, covering 140 km of track and 46 stations; according to Siemens it is the largest use of this technology in Latin America. Besides the trackside equipment (traffic management system, interlockings, radio block centre), Siemens fits 107 trains, nine locomotives and 17 auxiliary vehicles with ETCS on-board units; network capacity is expected to rise by up to 30%. The report gives neither a contract value nor a signing date, so the date of the report is used. (LOK Report, 9 Oct 2025)
