Siemens Mobility

🚆 Picture Istanbul in the early 1900s—a city on the rise, ready for modern public transport. Since 1905, global companies had competed to electrify the horse-drawn tram system. By 1911, Siemens and two partners won the contract to upgrade 30 km of track. ⚡ There were plenty of challenges: Ownership changes, infrastructure issues, and the Balkan Wars delayed progress. The first electric tram ran in Pera in 1913, but full operations only began in 1914 due to power shortages. In the end it was more than a transport upgrade—it was a turning point for urban mobility. Siemens continues to shape the future of sustainable transit worldwide, and #TransformMobilityForEveryone.

Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Some are super fast, some are extra brave, some are really strong – and some have less conventional abilities. Like our heroes of #highspeed. 🚝 Some venture into new territories, one puts the comfort of passengers before anything else and another aims to help save the planet. But that’s not all a #hero can be. We want to know what you think! 👇Tell us in the comments what are the most important characteristics of a hero for you! 🦹♂️ ✨ And if you’re curious about the heroes of high speed, you can learn more about them by clicking on the link here: https://sie.ag/2QT8QY

Step back in time to Lower Austria in the early 1900s, where the stunning Mariazellerbahn revolutionized regional mobility. 🚆✨ 💡 Opened in 1907, this narrow-gauge railway connected St. Pölten with the pilgrimage site of Mariazell, a key destination in Austria-Hungary. More than just a tourist route, it played a crucial role in transporting timber, ore, and agricultural goods—so much so that it reached capacity within its very first year. ⚡ To meet demand, engineers pursued a groundbreaking solution: full electrification using single-phase alternating current (AC)—a first for any railway of this length. The abundant watercourses along the route provided a natural energy source, allowing the project to benefit not only the railway but also surrounding villages. 🛠️ Siemens-Schuckert Werke took on this challenge in 1907, navigating steep inclines, 19 viaducts, and 21 tunnels to complete electrification in just over three years—a true engineering milestone. 🚄 On October 7, 1911, the Mariazellerbahn entered a new era as one of Europe’s most scenic electric railways. The pioneering locomotives, designed specifically for this line, remained in operation for over a century, proving the lasting impact of AC electrification. 🌱 Today, Siemens continues to push the boundaries of sustainable and efficient rail solutions worldwide. Stay tuned for more stories on how historical breakthroughs shaped modern mobility. #TransformMobilityForEveryone
