Metrowagonmasch ( Russian Метровагонмаш , ) is a Russian engineering company based in the Moscow suburb of Mytishchi . Metrowagonmasch is known in Russia and abroad mainly for the metro cars it produces. In addition, it also produces rail buses , trailers , dump trucks , but also armored vehicles for the military.
history
The company was founded in Mytishchi in 1897 as a wagon factory. Co-founder was the then renowned entrepreneur and art patron Sawwa Mamontow . Initially, the company produced railway wagons for passenger and freight transport, and in 1903 the company also began to produce tram cars for local passenger transport in Moscow. In 1934, shortly before the first lines of the Moscow Metro went into operation , the now nationalized company started producing the first metro vehicles. In the Second World War, the production of military vehicles started in 1942; It was not until 1946 that the production of subway cars was resumed.
In 1992 Metrowagonmasch became a joint stock company . Metrowagonmasch has been part of the Russian mechanical engineering group Transmashholding since 2005 .

Subway car
The subway vehicles manufactured by Metrowagonmasch are used in almost all subway systems in Russia and the successor states of the former Soviet Union , as well as in the subways of Warsaw , Prague , Budapest and Sofia . The train types currently in use are:
- Ем / Еж series : Produced until 1977, still in use today on some lines of the Moscow Metro , the Saint Petersburg Metro and the Budapest Metro .
- Series 81-717 / 714 : Produced and further developed since the late 1970s, this train model is still the most common in Russia's underground railways today. Modifications of this series were also delivered to Warsaw, Prague and Sofia, where they are also still in use today.
- Class 81-720 : Developed from the beginning of the 1990s, this train model is currently used on Line 10 of the Moscow Metro.
- Series 81-740 / 741 : Series production started in 2003. The model, which was originally developed for the so-called "light metro", takes on passenger transport on lines 3 , 4 and L1 of the Moscow metro; some other lines are also to be equipped with this model. A modification of the car type with an increased number of doors was designed for use on Line 3, which is relatively frequented by passengers. Several sets of the series were and are also being delivered to the Sofia Metro .
- Series 81-760 / 761 : This was developed from 2005 to 2010 and currently represents the latest series of metro wagon machine vehicles for the subway. Their regular use is planned from 2011.
Motor and military vehicles
Under the name Mytishchinsky Maschinostroitelny Sawod (Russian Мытищинский машиностроительный завод, translated Mytishchinsk Maschinenbauwerk, MMZ or MMS for short), the plant has been manufacturing various military vehicles and trucks, especially dump trucks, since the 1940s. The latter were based on chassis from the Sawod imeni Lichatschowa and not only covered domestic needs, but were also exported to various other countries. It began in 1947 with vehicles based on the ZIS-5 , later on the chassis of the ZIS-150 and ZIL-164 . The ZIL-MMZ-555 was built from 1964 to 1995, and various other models followed. In 2009 this part of the company was spun off and has since operated independently as OAO Mytishchinsky Maschinostroitelny Sawod .
