High-Speed Rail for the U.S.

The next generation of rail has arrived, and it’s traveling at 220 mph. The American Pioneer 220 is setting the standard for high-speed rail in America – emitting zero emissions, with a 100% electrified network and wide body trains that meet RVAAC standards. Built on more than 2 billion miles of high-speed rail experience across the globe, the American Pioneer 220 is the most accessible high-speed rail vehicle on the market, ensuring passengers in wheelchairs can seamlessly move from car to car throughout the entire vehicle - without interruption. A greener travel experience with enhanced passenger comforts, this first of its kind true-high speed trainset will forever transform the way Americans experience rail travel. And we’re just getting started.

One of the busiest routes in the southwest will soon transport passengers at 220 mph – ushering in a new era of rail transportation in America. The first true high-speed rail line in North America, Brightline West’s high-speed rail will connect the Los Angeles Basin to Las Vegas; pioneering a new frontier of rail for passengers and operators alike. Featuring the new American Pioneer 220 trainset from Siemens Mobility, when operational the route will remove the equivalent of 3 million cars from the congested highway 10 and be two times faster than driving.
