Written question asked by Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Earl Attlee (Conservative) on Thursday, 24 November 2011.
Railways: Rolling Stock
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many of the 168 train carriages supplied to National Express East Anglia are surplus to the requirements of the new franchisee, Abellio; to which other franchises they will be deployed; and when.
- Answer
-
National Express East Anglia procured 188 additional vehicles between 2009 and 2011. Abellio will deploy all these vehicles in the new franchise. However, it will not be renewing the leases on 36 older, low-capacity (ex-Stansted Express) vehicles. The future deployment of these vehicles is a matter for their owner (Angel Trains).
