Central Line Investment Programme [CLIP]

-

WITH no replacemen­t trains ordered and a legal requiremen­t to meet Rail Vehicle Accessibil­ity Regulation­s [RVAR] dating back to 2010, LU has made the decision to overhaul the Central Line and Waterloo & City Line trains. With replacemen­t AC motors to bogies and door interlocki­ng systems, the work should enable units to remain in passenger service well into the 2030s.

Work on the first unit should begin later this year.
