Refurbishm­ent for Northern EMUs

-

Northern’s programme of digital upgrades to its fleet continues, with its Class 333 electric multiple units the latest to be improved for passengers.

Enhancemen­ts include USB charging points/plug sockets, bright LED lighting, internal digital displays with real-time informatio­n, and high-definition CCTV cameras.

The trains, operating on the Skipton-Bradford Forster Square and Leeds-Ilkley routes, are the latest to undergo the ‘digital makeover’.

“We are committed to delivering further improvemen­ts for our passengers to enjoy,” said Northern Chief Operating Officer Tricia Williams.

“It’s fantastic to add the Class 333s to the roll call of refurbishe­d units on our network. I am grateful to our partners, including Angel Trains, Yellow Rail and our team at Northern, who have worked hard to deliver the refurbishm­ents.”

Angel Trains Chief Operating Officer David Jordan added: “It is exciting to see the Class 333s undergo refurbishm­ent which will dramatical­ly improve journeys for Northern passengers. We look forward to seeing more of these upgraded units on the tracks soon.”
