Northern: Rolling Stock
(asked on 17th December 2020) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions he has had with Northern Rail Ltd. on progress of cascading the class 323 rolling stock from West Midlands Trains and introduction of the class 769 Flex trains onto the network.
This question was answered on 11th January 2021
We have frequent discussions with Northern Trains Ltd on its rolling stock plans. The planned date for 769s to appear on the network is in March 2021. There is no date yet for the Class 323 cascade from West Midlands Trains, which is dependent upon the arrival of their new train fleet to release the Class 323s.
