SJ 250
Under its Delta 2.0 project Sweden's SJ AB begin procuring Zefiro Express high-speed trains from Bombardier Transportation, during the 2020s, later renamed to Avelia Stream Nordic by its successor Alstom.
The SJ 250 electric multiple unit train fleet is planned to have fixed formations measuring up to 179 metres (590 ft), operating up to 250 km/h (155 mph) and be capable of working across the current and future high-speed rail network in Sweden, in Denmark and in Norway down to temperatures of −40 °C (−40 °F).
SJ's aim is for these trains to replace air travel between the busiest airports in the Nordic countries—between the Scandinavian capital cities of Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm. Delivery of the fleet is expected during 2026‒2028. As of 2022[update], the planned fleet was for an order of twenty-five trains.
Trains will have bicycle spaces, 363 seats, and a bistro area.
The front of each train will include a snowplough, with the nosecone designed for collisions with wildlife weighing up to 330 kilograms (730 lb).
A backup battery is available in the event of overhead line failure.
Windows will be radio-transparent to allow radio and communication signals to pass through.
Carriage bodyshells are constructed in China, then shipped to Hennigsdorf in Germany.
