Springfield’s CRRC MA Honored; Rail Car Production Begins Next Month

The new CRRC MA rail car manufacturing complex in East Springfield is the state’s engineering accomplishment of the year, according to the American Council of Engineering Companies of Massachusetts.

The group honored CRRC at its annual meeting Wednesday.

That honor comes as CRRC nears the start of production. The Chinese-owned company will start building new cars for the MBTA Orange Line in April.
