Waggonfabrik Talbot was a rolling stock manufacturer founded in Aachen, Germany, in 1838. The company was an early pioneer of self discharging freight wagons, and in the latter part of the twentieth century a major supplier to the Dutch State Railways (Nederlandse Spoorwegen).
In the 1990s the company developed the Talent passenger train, and was acquired by Bombardier Inc. As of 2011, the company is part of Bombardier GmbH., and manufactures passenger rolling stock. Since takeover it is also referred to as Bombardier Talbot.
Bombardier announced the closure of the factory in 2012. The factory has been acquired by management and local investors and operates as the independent company Talbot Services, providing rail vehicle maintenance and overhaul services since 2013. It has also branched out into other activities, such as the assembly of the StreetScooter.
