Anticipating the global movement towards solutions that preserve the environment, improve the comfort of workers and minimize negative impact on the neighborhood, Geismar proposes a new global approach towards a sustainable railway world “the sustainable way to rail” which consolidates all its innovative electrically-powered solutions under the name Activion systems.
The OPTIMA 100 allows you easy access to all the catenary (messenger & contact cables) including the feeder cables making this unit a valuable and versatile asset in all catenary maintenance operations
