[passenger] Coradia Max: Alstom renames its high-capacity train design

Alstom has officially renamed its high-capacity train design for Europe. Alstom Coradia Stream HC is no more – the new name is Alstom Coradia Max. This affects the following projects:

• all Alstom Coradia Max (ex Stream HC) projects

Seperate orders:

• Alstom Coradia Max CFL
• Alstom Coradia Max DB Regio (Kinzigtalbahn)
• Alstom Coradia Max DB Regio (Main-Weser)
• Alstom Coradia Max DB Regio (OSTA Netz)
• Alstom Coradia Max LNVG
• Alstom Coradia Max NAH.SH
• Alstom Coradia Max SFBW (BaWü)

Previously, the typical Stream cab design, with elegant swoosh,  was replaced by a more neutral one. Only CFL will get Coradia Stream HC / Max with the original rounded cabs.

You can see the rationalisation of the Stream design below, as the artist’s impressions of the trains for LNVG changed during the design phase:
