Alstom

Products: n/a. Risk band: Elevated   RobotRisk index 17.5/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 6 of 12 among Rail suppliers companies with incidents (141 tracked).

Analyst brief

Alstom's sole entry mirrors the Metrolinx dispute: a January 2026 malfunction concerning an emergency brake issue raised on the Eglinton Crosstown LRT before opening, severity 2. Alstom's index of 17.5 ranks 6 of 12 companies in Rail suppliers with incident history. The record is press-driven, tied to the same pre-launch brake concern as the operator-side entry, and concerns equipment supplied for the line rather than a confirmed in-service failure. The record consists of one event with no additional history on file.
