ADTRANZ

'Adtranz' (alternative spelling ''ADtranz'', complete name '''A'BB 'D'aimler Ben'z' 'Tran'sportation'') was a German rail rolling stock equipment manufacturer which designed rail cars and engines.
It was created in 1996 in the merger of ABB Henschel and AEG Transportation. Initially it was owned with equal shares by Daimler-Benz and ABB. In 1999 DaimlerChrysler bought ABB's shares and renamed Adtranz 'DaimlerChrysler Rail Systems'.
Bombardier Transportation acquired the company in 2001, making Bombardier the largest rail equipment manufacturer in the world. At the time of its purchase, Adtranz was the world's second largest manufacturer of such equipment.
