We present 86GHz (v=1, J=2-1) SiO maser line observations with the IRAM 30-m telescope of a sample of 444 late-type stars in the Inner Galaxy (-4{deg}<l<+30{deg}). These stars were selected on basis of their infrared magnitudes and colours from the ISOGAL and MSX catalogues. SiO maser emission was detected in 271 sources, and their line-of-sight velocities indicate that the stars are located in the Inner Galaxy. These new detections double the number of line-of-sight velocities available from previous SiO and OH maser observations in the area covered by our survey and are, together with other samples of e.g. OH/IR stars, useful for kinematic studies of the central parts of the Galaxy.
