Zakłady Naprawcze Taboru Kolejowego
Appearance
Zakłady Naprawcze Taboru Kolejowego (ZNTK, Template:Lang-en) were a network of rolling stock maintenance and construction factories in Poland. It was formed during the 1950 reorganisation of the state-owned Polish State Railways out of previously-operating "Main Mechanical Workshops". The network included yards in most larger towns of Poland and was headed by the largest of workshops, the ZNTK Ostrów in Ostrów Wielkopolski.
In 1991 the ZNTK network was excluded from within the Polish State Railways holding. Since then most of them were either privatised or liquidated. The most important companies founded on the basis of former ZNTK workshops are:
- ZNTK Bydgoszcz - PESA SA
- ZNTK Gliwice & ZNTK Nowy Sącz - Newag
- ZNTK Gorzów Wielkopolski - Gorzów Wagony
- ZNTK Mińsk Mazowiecki, 60% owned by PESA SA
- ZNTK Ostróda - GATX Rail Poland
- ZNTK Ostrów - Fabryka Wagon
