History edit

 
71-931

The company was founded by Felix Vinokur in 2013, after leaving the founders of the Trading house Ust-Katav Wagon-Building Plant LLC.[1] In 2014, on the basis of the Vinokur’s company developments at the leased facilities of the Tver Carriage Works launched the production of the 71-911 "City Star" tram and later the "Vityaz" tram, which received a certificate for industrial production in 2015.[2]

In April 2017, the company's management announced their availability to take over the Tver tram system as a concession, promising to invest 6 billion rubles in the development of the Tver tram to continue to support it for over ten years.[3] In early 2018, the company began construction of a factory for the production of aluminum carriages for trams at the Tver Mechanical Factory Plant of Electric Transport, a separate structural department of the PC TS. The cost of the new factory, according to 2019’s data, was one billion rubles.[4] In 2020, the factory started production of a tram with an aluminum alloy carriage.[5] However, the Tver tramway system closed in November 2018.[6]

In March 2018, Felix Vinokur signed an agreement with the leaders of Saratov and Saratov Oblast on modernizing tram traffic and establishing high-speed tram lines in Saratov.[7]

In May 2018, the company moved the assembly of tram carriages from Tver to Saint Petersburg, establishing a separate structural department - "Nevsky Factory Plant of Electric Transport" and leasing the Oktyabrsky electric car repair factory.[8] PC TS leased the factory on Sedov street for 1 billion 183.36 million rubles.[9] In November 2018, the management of PC Transport systems suggested to make a 30-year concession agreement to make a medium-capacity rail system in Novokuznetsk for 10 billion rubles.[10]

In December 2019, the company leased part of the territory of the former Trolza factory in Engels, where a separate structural department of PC Transport systems, the Engels factory Plant of Electric Transport, began functioning.[11] The payment of 11 months' rent allowed Trolza to pay off their salary debts to their employees.[12]

PC Transport systems invested 300 million rubles in the Engels factory.[13] At the same time, the Engels plant began mass production of low-floor trolleybuses "Admiral" with increased off-wire travel.[14]
