Siemens Mobility manufactures light rail vehicles for North America at its Sacramento plant, which is mainly powered by solar energy. They are a leading provider of transportation and logistics solutions, moving people and goods efficiently, safely and using green manufacturing technology. In November 2010 Siemens Mobility was awarded a $466 million contract by Amtrak to build the first U.S. electric locomotives, which will bring hundreds of new jobs to California.

I hope to see you on the 19th!
