The global rolling stock market is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 4% during 2021-2026. Approval of new railway lines and high-speed railway projects coupled with the growing need for energy-efficient transport are the major factors expected to fuel the market. Rolling stock is referred to as any wheeled vehicle running on a railway track, like locomotives, passenger coaches, and freight wagons. Rolling stock has facilitated easy transportation with benefits such as cost-effectiveness, reliability, and comfort. Thus, the demand for rolling stock has been on a steady rise over the past few years and this trend will continue during the forecast period. Moreover, government initiatives to promote public transport as a means of reducing traffic congestion and pollution are also bolstering the global rolling stock market.

Based on locomotive technology, the global rolling stock market has been categorized into conventional locomotives, turbocharge locomotives, and maglev. The turbocharge locomotive category accounts for the largest share among all the locomotive technology types, majorly owing to the increasing power offered by turbocharge locomotives with no additional fuel costs.

In terms of product type, the market has been categorized into electric locomotive, diesel locomotive, EMU, DMU, electro-diesel locomotive, subway/metro, light rail/tram, wagon, and coach. Owing to the growing demand for dedicated freight corridors in a country, the EMU category is anticipated to capture the largest market share in the coming years.

The rolling stock market is well-established in Western European and North American countries and is expected to grow linearly during the forecast period. Emerging economies such as India, Brazil, China, and Iran are expected to become the most lucrative markets for global rolling stock players, backed by rapidly expanding industries and government initiatives aimed at developing advanced railway transport systems in these countries. Moreover, regional governments in the Middle East & Africa, and South America have already launched several programs to improve and expand their railway networks, thereby offering further growth opportunities to market players. 

The global rolling stock market is consolidated in nature due to the increasing number of mergers & acquisitions. Some of the leading players in the global rolling stock market are CRRC Corporation Limited, Bombardier Inc., CAF, Alstom SA, Trinity Industries, Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd., and others.
