The Fyra trains were “perfectly fine” but NS subsidiary NSFC, which ordered the fast trains was “absolutely incompetent and not cooperative.” That said Maurizio Manfellotto, since 2011 head of Fyra builder AnsaldoBreda, this morning at the parliamentary inquiry commission Fyra.

The committee is investigating why the Fyra went too late drive and all disappeared quickly from the high speed line HSL because there is anything wrong with it. Manfellotto suggested that the train “itself was not a problem.” In principal NSFC missing, according to the CEO of AnsaldoBreda, however the expertise and experience to build a new train.

The Fyra was finished five years later than was agreed. That Fyra so late could be driving was as Manfellotto in any case not be AnsaldoBreda, twitters our economics editor Mark Duursma:

Manfellotto complained at the beginning of the interview about the lack of cooperation with NS and the Belgian railway company SNCB:

Manfellotto was as a foreigner not required to appear before the committee Fyra, but hopes the debacle smeared name of his company again to brush up a bit. That will not be easy: AnsaldoBreda during the Fyra survey a popular target. A faulty train is more concrete than inadequate supervision. And Italy is comfortably far away. Politicians and executives of NS and the Belgian SNCB lay in their interrogations much debt to the Italians.

More later.
