Tramlink is a family of three-, five- and seven- section low-floor trams, mostly of multi-articulated type, produced by Stadler Rail Valencia.
Between 2011 and 2014 the Rostock tramway received 13 uni-directional vehicles from Vossloh Kiepe, which from December 2014 began to replace Tatra T6A2 trams and 4BNWE trailers.
The bottoms of the side walls slope inwards from 2.65 m wide to only 2.3 m to allow them to use the existing platforms.
[2] After tests with a Combino from Nordhausen and a long-term loan of a Cityrunner from Innsbruck, Stern und Hafferl Verkehr ordered eleven bi-directional Tramlink V3 type trams from Vossloh Kiepe in 2014 for use on the Traunseebahn and the Attergaubahn.
The bi-directional vehicles were ordered at the end of 2012 and are fitted with batteries for use on the catenary-free section of track in the centre of Santos.
[9] In summer 2018 the Ferrovie Luganesi ordered nine Tramlink vehicles for approximately 50 million Swiss francs.
[13] In autumn 2018 Baselland Transport (BLT) and Aargau Verkehr (AVA) announced a joint order for 18 seven-section Tramlinks, worth 103 million Swiss francs.
On the Waldenburgerbahn the approximately 45 m long trains are intended to be used in coupled pairs at peak times.
Although this is not used on the Limmattalbahn itself, it is needed for the vehicles to use part of the Wohlen–Dietikon railway line in Dietikon and to access the AVA workshops in Bremgarten.
[15] In July 2019 Stadler won a tender from Azienda Trasporti Milanesi to deliver up to 80 bi-directional vehicles for the Milan tram network.
Initially fourteen 35 m long trams were ordered, with delivery expected from June 2026.
Delivery of the 16 seven-section and 8 five-section vehicles began in May 2023 and the first tram entered service in December 2023.
[27] In December 2021 Stadler and ViP, operator of the Potsdam tram network, announced an order of ten Tramlink vehicles.
The fully low-floor vehicles are 42 m long, have eight doors and a capacity of 246 passengers, including 74 seats.
[29] In autumn 2022 Transports publics de la région lausannoise announced an order for 10 Tramlink trams.
The tram body shells are built from stainless steel and fulfil the EN 15227 crash-worthiness standard.
The majority of the electrical equipment, including the externally-ventilated braking resistors and the air conditioning units, is located on the roof.
