The story

Trenitalia LeNord (TLN) was founded in Milan on 4 August 2009 from the merging of LeNord, company owned by FNM, and the Lombardy regional division of Trenitalia.

The first step of the new company was the opening of a new maintenance and cleaning center for trains in Lombardy, the biggest in Italy.

Trenitalia and LeNord rented their Lombardy regional trains divisions to the company on 30 October 2009 for 11 months. After this trial period the rent was extended to the end of 2010. After this date, the rent was again extended twice to 31 March and finally to 1 May 2011, when the company was renamed Trenord.

The last agreement included also the Trenitalia control over TiLo and the EuroCity service by LeNord in partnership with Deutsche Bahn and ÖBB, all merged into the new company.

In the 2010s there was a deficiency in rolling stock and personnel so the company took a massive investment in rolling stock and hired and trained lots of people.
