RegioJet is a private railway operator in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It is a subsidiary of Student Agency partnered with Keolis.
In the Czech Republic, RegioJet operates trains between Prague and Havířov. One service daily will be extended to Žilina from December 11th, 2011 with plans to expand route to Košice at later stage..
In January 2011, RegioJet won a contract to operate regional trains in Slovakia, on the Bratislava - Dunajská Streda - Komárno route from March 2012, breaking ZSSK's monopoly in Slovakia.[2] There are plans to win more tenders in Slovakia.[3]
RegioJet will use Bombardier Talent DMUs in Slovakia.[4] It has also bought 9 Škoda Class E630 electric locomotives from Ferrovie Nord Milano.[5] The company purchased[6][7] passenger cars of classes ABmz 30-70 (12 pcs), Ampz 18-91 (8 pcs) and Bmz 21-70 (6 pcs) from Austrian Federal Railways. They were transported to the Czech Republic in early June 2011 and late July 2011. This allows to create at least 3 trainsets to start service in September 2011. These passenger cars undergo maintenance in METRANS owned service facility METRANS DYKO Rail Repair Shop Kolín and are painted in OLPAS Moravia Krnov.[8]
