The first of Greater Anglia’s new electric trains which will replace the company’s old trains used on lines into London from Essex, Cambridge, Hertfordshire and Ipswich has completed its maiden voyage to Liverpool Street.
Made by British manufacturer Bombardier, the train successfully completed a test run into Liverpool Street recently. Technicians were checking how the new train interacts with the signalling system.
It is one of a series of “network tests” due to take place over coming weeks, to check the train’s compatibility with the Greater Anglia network.
