ZURICH, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Trainmaker Stadler  SRAIL.S 
has applied for temporary short-time working for some workers at
a Swiss plant after suffering supply problems caused by severe
storms and flooding earlier this year.
    A supplier halted production of aluminium components used to
make train carriages following the storms in June, leading to
delays in deliveries, Stadler said on Friday.
    Stadler said the measure would apply to 119 workers at its
factory in Altenrhein, northern Switzerland. The company, which
employs 5,300 people in Switzerland, said the measures were
temporary and would apply until the supply of components fully
resumed.
