High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Hyundai Rotem is a South Korean company manufacturing rolling stock, defense products and plant equipment. It is part of the Hyundai Motor Group. Its name was changed to the current one from Rotem on December 2007. Notable projects include MTR's "K-Stocks", trains for the New Delhi Metro and automated trains for the Canada Line between Vancouver and Richmond in British Columbia, Canada. They are also to supply the Silverliner V commuter trains for SEPTA Regional Rail in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. The company was founded in 1999 as Korea Rolling Stock Corporation (KOROS), the result of merger between then three major rolling stock divisions of Hanjin Heavy Industries, Daewoo Heavy Industries and Hyundai Precision. The company subsequently changed its name to Railroading Technology System, or Rotem, on 1 January 2002. It is because the Japanese word korosu, which has a similar pronunciation, means "to kill." It adopted its current name in December 2007 to reflect its current owner. Hyundai Rotem currently employs 3,800 and exported to 29 countries worldwide.
