Back in 2010, Bombardier Transportation received the first order for 27 five-partdouble-deck trains in combination with the BR 146.5 locomotives from apreviously-concluded framework contract with DB AG for a total of 800 double-deck trains. An order was placed for a further 17 trains in March 2015. The TWINDEXX Vario®, is a further development of the tried-andtrusted double-deck platform from Gö, rlitz. Each train has 468 seats, 70 of which are in 1st class as well as 10 bicycle parking spaces. The top speed of the trains is 160 km/h.
