Nickel-containing stainless steel in high speed trains

摘要

As the demand for mass transportation burgeons around the world, railway compa- nies are looking for new solutions to address the increasing challenges of moving more people quicker than ever before. Replacement of old infrastructure combined with new high-speed links is a solution to meet these growing needs. In addition, reduced running costs and energy consump- tion, improved passenger safety, more attractive outer appearance and better comfort to redress the poor image of crowded mass transport are now standard requirements. Railway companies are looking to nickel-containing stainless steel in railcar construc- tion to help meet these challenges.
