Transitio AB is a Swedish limited liability company that is owned by its customers, a mix of different regions and public transport companies in Sweden. Their function is to buy trains and then lease them out to the owners and in so doing reduce the cost of maintenance and ownership. Unlike buses (where the traffic operators operate and purchase vehicles) the public transport companies typically need to lease trains, because they have high cost and usually two to three years of delivery time. There is a need to limit cost by reducing the number of train models and procuring larger number of trains per purchase. During the period 1999–2012 Transitio has purchased trains worth 25 billion SEK (multiple the amount SJ has spent), mainly from the manufacturers Bombardier and Alstom. From 2015 purchase contracts has to a high degree been signed with Stadler Rail. As of 2017, Transitio owned 145 trains.
