We make trains fit. For the future of rail.
Think of a workshop for trains. And now think bigger: Welcome to OWS! On over 20,000 square meters of workshop space, we make rail vehicles fit in Weiden in the Upper Palatinate. We repair, overhaul, modernize and paint. We maintain and repair multiple units, passenger coaches, locomotives and track maintenance machines. Because for us, sustainable mobility means using good things for longer - reliably and safely. We are committed to this with precision, creativity and experience.
