Railways: Standards
(asked on 14th December 2020) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 21 January 2019 to Question 208287 on Railways: Standards, what progress has been made on learning and sharing the lessons on the introduction of new rolling stock.

The Rail Delivery Group published a guide in March 2020 which describes good practice that organisations should consider when commissioning and introducing new trains. The guide can be found here:
