SHANGHAI - China South Locomotive & Rolling Stock Corporation Ltd (CSR), has won orders valued at about 7.33 billion yuan ($1.13 billion), equal to 11.3 percent of its total 2010 revenue.

Analysts said China's robust demand for high-speed, bullet and metro trains will boost CSR's market performance.

The big-ticket deals include orders for rapid-transit vehicles from Guangzhou Metro Corporation worth 2.6 billion yuan and Wuhan Metro Group Co Ltd worth 0.8 billion yuan. The company has also secured a 0.21 billion yuan order for wind-power generating units from Huaneng Hezhang Wind Power Co Ltd.

The Shanghai and Hong Kong-listed train maker also has orders for open wagons from companies in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, and for maintenance of passenger carriages from the Ministry of Railways.
