One of our first sustainable mobility solutions was a dual-mode Autorail à Grande Capacité (AGC) train, designed and developed by its Crespin site in France; the AGC was the world’s first hybrid train when it entered service in 2007. With 2,473 AGC train cars in operation today, the AGC is the largest regional fleet operated in France.
