Wabtec Expands Locomotive Services Capabilities in India
SILIGURI, West Bengal, January 15, 2026 — Wabtec Corporation (NYSE: WAB) and Indian Railways celebrated the start of locomotive service operations at the Siliguri Maintenance Shed in West Bengal, India. The shed expands Wabtec’s locomotive service capabilities in the eastern part of the country and marks a new service model in India by leveraging existing Indian Railways infrastructure and staff.
“The Siliguri Maintenance Shed represents another milestone in our partnership with Indian Railways,” said Sandeep Selot, Managing Director and Vice President, Wabtec Freight Business. “It will play a critical role in supporting reliability and availability of state-of-art locomotives deployed for border and strategic operations in the Northeast region of India and the gateway to Southeast Asia. This shed adds to our existing maintenance operations at Roza, Gandhidham, and Gooty, which combined will service Indian Railways’ 1,000 Wabtec locomotives across the country.”
The Siliguri Maintenance shed will support an Indian Railways’ fleet of 250 Wabtec Evolution Series locomotives. Wabtec will provide regular maintenance, supervision, material and warehouse management, shed control, logistics, and remote diagnostics. These services will support the locomotive fleet deployed on critical freight operations hauling commodities like food grains, fertilizers, cement and containers along the strategic gateway to 8 Northeastern states of India.
