voestalpine Klöckner Bahntechnik GmbH received an enquiry in October 2001 for this project and was commissioned in June of 2002 with the supply and delivery of superstructure materials by Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gleisbau ABS Röhrmoos - Obermenzing.

The following materials were supplied by voestalpine Klöckner Bahntechnik GmbH to date:

- 91.68 km 60E2 rail sections
- 89.88 km S54 rail sections
- roughly 120.000 concrete B70 sleepers
- 16 braking buffers
- 131 turnouts, including the following:
- 5 UIC60 turnouts
- 45 60E2 turnouts
- 75 S54 turnouts
- 2 S49 turnouts
- 4 crossings

After clarifying the technical design, particularly for the turnouts, the manufacturing and delivery logistics operations went into full swing. This means that in the main phase from January to December 2004 an average of one turnout per week was delivered. Solely developed for the purpose of an easy, robust and economically intelligent method of unloading, the Railputler^®system offers an optimised service for just-in-time deliveries of ultralong rails directly at the site of installation for our customer ARGE Gleisbau ABS Röhrmoos - Obermenzing.
