MotivePower http://www.motivepower.com/ said production on the 26 commuter railroad engines will begin in May.
A Boise locomotive manufacturer has won a $95 million contract to build 26 commuter locomotives for the Maryland Transit Administration, the company said Monday.
"This is certainly a large contract for us and represents a year backlog," said Mark Warner, vice president and general manager of MotivePower Inc.
It represents about 10 percent of the entire backlog of parent company Wabtec Corp., spokesman Tim Wesley said. Wabtec is based in Wilmerding, Pa., east of Pittsburgh.
