Recently, the train for the high level maintenance metro project executed by CRRC for Mecca of Saudi Arabia rolled off the production line successfully at Arafat Depot.

The metro train tailor-made by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd. for Mecca of Saudi Arabia is an A Type aluminum wide-body train, mainly used for transporting pilgrims to Mecca during Hajj. It significantly alleviates road transportation congestion during Hajj, winning extensive recognition of the Saudi client and the public.

In 2021, to satisfy the client's need for local maintenance, CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd. set up the "sales service shop" in where the client is, actively implementing localization together with multiple parties. The project team conducted careful planning, worked on the maintenance plan, materials supply and human resources, adopted a project management approach, and completed the upgrade and renovation of the facilities at Arafat Depot ahead of schedule, realizing localized high level maintenance for multiple systems.

The innovative move to localize after-sales service represents a successful trial of a win-win overseas collaboration model, and provides a new concept for China's rail transit to go global.
