The six-car DP-6 diesel trains are a new product specifically created for the Belarusian railway. They are manufactured by the Polish concern JSC "PESA Bydgoszcz," which has been producing rolling stock for several decades. The company's electric and diesel trains operate in Germany, Italy, and the Czech Republic, and its latest trams carry passengers in Kaliningrad and Moscow. The trains supplied to the Republic of Belarus are among the first vehicles in the world to meet the strictest international safety requirements.
