BDWM will operate Limmattalbahn
filed on: 08.07.2016 (8th Jul 2016)
It has been announced that Limmattalbahn, the light rail link extending from the tram system on Zürich's western suburbs along the Limmat valley and into the neighbouring canton of Aargau will be operated by BDWM. VBZ and SZU had also shown interest in operating the line, but have announced they will not chalenge the decision. BDWM presently operates the Bremgarten - Dietikon line (with which Limmattalbahn will share a short portion of track) as well as various bus routes in the area.
Apparently, BDWM's offer had the lowest cost.

In my opinion, this is a fortunate choice, Bremgarten - Dietikon being an efficiently and well run railway.
