Reliance Rail is manufacturing and maintaining Sydney’s new Waratah trains. They are the next generation suburban passenger fleet designed to provide customers with improved security, safety and accessibility.
We are in a public-private partnership with the NSW Government to deliver the largest single procurement of trains in Australian history, costing $3.6 billion. Reliance Rail is building 626 new Waratah carriages over the next three years, which will be maintained at our facility in Auburn in Sydney’s west.
The first Waratah train entered passenger service in July 2011. In late 2014 the Waratah trains will make up to about half of train operator CityRail's current suburban fleet.
