The Schaffner Group (SIX Swiss Exchange: SAHN) will supply, in a 
first tranche to be delivered by mid-2010, transformers and reactors 
valued in the upper single-digit millions for new high-speed trains 
currently under construction for the Chinese National Railway.
The major order for delivery of components for the Chinese National 
Railway's new high-tech trains reconfirms the Schaffner Group's 
standing as a leading supplier of magnetic components to the 
international rail technology sector. "This major order will 
significantly strengthen Schaffner's position in what is today the 
world's biggest market for high-speed trains," explained Alexander 
Hagemann, Chief Executive Officer of the Schaffner Group. Schaffner 
will supply transformers and reactors to Siemens, which is delivering
components such as the electronics equipment and undercarriages for 
the high-speed trains being constructed in China with local Chinese 
partners.
China commissioned the construction of 100 modern high-speed trains 
in the first quarter of 2009. The high-tech trains being built in 
China have a top speed of 350 km/h, comprise 16 coaches totaling 
around 400 meters in length, and will have the capacity to carry over
1,000 passengers. They are scheduled to go into operation in 2010 on 
the new 1300 km track running between Beijing and Shanghai, and will 
cover the distance in four hours.
