It's all to do with buyouts and things.
From a UK railways point of view, Alstom is what used to be Metro Cammell.
Goes without saying that it's a complicated set of mergers and renamings ;)
Basically: Alsthom was formed in 1928, became GEC Alsthom in 1988 and had an IPO as Alstom in 1997.
Alsthom chanaged its name to Alstom about 10 years ago
