A Merry Christmas to all Eye readers!
On the day that we were due to celebrate the 1000th day without an order for new rolling stock, DfT has pulled its finger out!
This from Bombardier:
London, 28 December, 2011 – Bombardier Transportation today announced that it has secured an additional order for 130 BOMBARDIER ELECTROSTAR* cars for Southern. The new trains will augment Southern’s existing fleet of Bombardier’s award winning electric multiple units. The contract is valued at £188.8 million (Euro 222.8 million).
Hail Greening - a Transport Secretary who makes things happen!
