Talgo 250 Dual: High Speed on Every Line
Talgo 250 Dual is a product without peers on the market. It is the only train that enables operators to overcome all barriers to seamless operation potentially saving millions in costly electrification work.
Designing a high-speed train capable of offering a high-range of features on any railway network, even those with different track gauges, electrification and signalling systems, and long sections of non-electrified line, was often viewed as an impossible feat. It wasn't.
Talgo 250 Dual is unique in its versatility. A Talgo 250 spin-off, this high-speed all-rounder can, just like its forerunner, operate without having to halt when changing gauge and use any power supply from the overhead line. Add to this the technology to make operating services on non-electrified lines possible, as well optimised accessibility, low energy consumption and the lowest operating costs, then you have a train that can meet any requirement.

Versatility and flexibility
- Maximum speeds of up to 250km/h on high-speed lines and 200km/h on conventional tracks.
- Up to 180km/h and hundreds of kilometres of range on non-electrified tracks.
- Variable gauge system that works while the train is moving.
- Maximum versatility for commercial purposes.
- Flexible operations: can manoeuvre in non-electrified yards and operate if there is an electrical power supply failure.

With or without electricity
- Dual voltage: 25kV ac and 3kV dc.
- Fully adaptable to 15kV ac and 750/1500V dc.
- 3.6kW of power supply in generator mode.

Light and efficient, with shorter travel times
- Lightweight trains, manufactured from welded extruded aluminium.
- Improved features with minimum environmental impact.
- Lower maintenance costs on wheels and infrastructure.
- Faster journeys on old tracks, with enhanced comfort.
- Automatic and seamless switching between traction modes.

Accessibility and comfort
- Easily accessible to passengers, especially those with reduced mobility.
- Stop times at stations are significantly reduced.
- Five panoramic view windows on either side.
- Ergonomic seats facing the direction of travel, with footrests and reclining chairs.
- Plug sockets in every seat and individual reading lights.
- Infotainment services at-seat and on all cars on the train.
- Fully equipped bar-buffet car.
