VOITH Turbo's new locomotive division in Kiel has got off to a great start since it was formed just over two years ago, with the first orders already placed for both its Maxima and Gravita diesel-hydraulic locomotive families. As far as Gravita is concerned, Voith has sold four Gravita 10 shunters to a Swiss steel works even though the first Gravita prototypes have yet to be built.

Voith Turbo Lokomotivtechnik may be Europe's, if not the world's, newest diesel locomotive manufacturer, but it is staffed by a highly skilled and experienced workforce. Its managing ...
