Siemens Mobility is a true British success story when it comes to railway signalling.
Equipment has been manufactured in the UK for over a century from its site in Chippenham, supported by numerous offices across the country and two other manufacturing sites in Poole (the site for GSM-R railway communications) and Ashby-de-la-Zouch (a centre for Systems Control & Data Acquisition – commonly known as SCADA). With complete project lifecycle abilities all possible from the UK, Siemens Mobility is a formidable force in railway signalling and telecommunications.
