"We are delighted that Petards has again been selected by Siemens to work on their second contract with the Turkish State Railway. This new order comes only a week ahead of Petards exhibiting at InnoTrans 2018 in Berlin, the world's leading Rail exhibition. It will add to our already significant installed base and strengthens our position as a leader of on train video and data solutions. Additionally it further bolsters the Group's order book for delivery in 2019 and 2020."
