X'Trapolis

Passenger Rolling Stock and High-Speed Trainsets

The X'Trapolis, now being rebranded Adessia, is Alstom's series of high-floor multiple unit trains, offered in single-deck and double-deck forms. They normally take power from an external electrical supply but can also run on batteries, hydrogen or diesel-electric units. Models include the X'Trapolis Duplex for the Paris RER, introduced in 1997 and 1998, the X'Trapolis 100 for Melbourne and Valparaíso, the X'Trapolis Modular for Chile, the Mega for South African Metrorail, the Cityduplex or RER NG, and the Transperth C-series. Irish Rail's 90000 Class for the DART network entered production in 2024 and Wellington's battery-electric Tuhono units are ordered for 2030. A UK design offered for Thameslink in 2009 was withdrawn.
