SOFIA (Bulgaria), April 6 (SeeNews) - Bulgarian railway operator BDZ Passengers canceled a tender for the supply of up to 16 new electric multiple unit (MU) trains worth an estimated 246.8 million levs ($149.1 million/126.2 million euro), the company's parent BDZ Holding said on Tuesday.
The tender was cancelled because two of the three participants - Romania's Alstom Ferroviaria S.p.A. and a consortium comprising Poland-based Stadler Polska, Switzerland-based Stadler Bussnang and Stadler Service, did not take part in the negotiations stage of the procedure and have not stated that their initial offers are final, state-owned railway group BDZ Holding said in a statement.
