The biggest railway contractor in Scandinavia, Swedish Infranord, has decided to invest in two new and modern tamping machines.

Higher efficiency and a lower environmental impact have been key for this decision.

Behind this investment is RB Solutions AB who have bought the machines and rented them out to Infranord on a 10-year contract from the day the machines are delivered in Sweden.

The machines are presently in production and will be fully homologated and ready for operation in Sweden at the beginning of 2026.

– We are constantly working to streamline the maintenance and construction of the railway. The new machines have a high capacity and flexibility, which means that work on tracks can be carried out faster and leads to fewer disruptions to train traffic. With this investment, Infranord will have the best suited track tamping machines on the Swedish and Norwegian market, says Stefan Gustavsson, president and CEO of Infranord.

RB Solutions have for some time worked to find new and innovative methods to introduce new and modern railway machines into the market.

– The excellent collaboration between Infranord, Plasser & Theurer and RB Solutions have now put us in a situation where we are able to rent out machines. This is yet another alternative to support the market in the big transformation from a rather old Scandinavian fleet of railway machines to a modern, highly efficient and sustainable fleet, says Marthin Lundström, CEO of RB Solutions.
