Railway Assets Corp plans KTM cargo fleet refurbishment


PUTRAJAYA: The Railway Assets Corporation (RAC) has taken a significant step towards better optimisation of limited resources by refurbishing KTM Bhd’s fleet of old rolling stock for cargo operations instead of relying fully on outright purchases.

In a contract exchange ceremony here yesterday, the Transport Ministry said RAC would be roping in the private sector to refurbish 44 diesel locomotives.
