Janusz Kucmin, Chief Country Representative of Bombardier Transportation in Poland said ‘Bombardier Transportation has been a major supporter of Poland’s rail infrastructure modernization. We are committed to increasing our participation in supporting the country’s development and we are very proud to play an important role in the future development of the Polish rail industry.’
