Additional Bidding Instructions

The technical specifications document, which may be adapted to reflect and refine VIA Rail’s requirements, will form the basis of an upcoming RFP (subject to final approval by the Government of Canada). We would like trainset vendors to provide us their comments on these specifications by October 21th, 2016, allowing VIA Rail to evaluate modifying the technical specifications based on relevant input received. The objective of this step is to best align our requirements to the marketplace’s ability to respond with high quality solutions.
