GWR'S £500M FLEET
Testing of the first Great Western Railway Class 802 bi-mode train to be built at Pistoia by Hitachi Rail Italy begins in September. The work will take two weeks. It is due to arrive in the UK in December. GWR has 36 Class 802s on order for its West of England services to Devon and Cornwall. These are formed into an initial order of twenty two five-car and seven nine-car trains, supplemented last year by a further seven nine-car trains as GWR seeks to resolve the capacity
and performance issues caused by delays to the Great Western Electrification Programme.
