China's first domestically designed light rail train has been put into operation in Europe, marking a significant achievement for its manufacturer CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co., Ltd., Chinanews.com reports.

The company designed the trains for Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey, which has a light rail line that goes through crowded areas with many sharp curves. The first train began operating last Thursday.

Wang Jinsheng, project manager of CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co., Ltd, said 32 Chinese-designed light rail trains would be put into service in the city to ease high traffic congestion.
