Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer visited on 6 December 2024 Newton Aycliffe to celebrate a significant agreement for the Hitachi Rail factory which has secured an order of around 500 million GBP to manufacture 14 new five-car class 80X trains for FirstGroup, including maintenance over a ten year lease period.
In late June 2022, Hitachi Rail announced that it is installing its cutting-edge live monitoring solution across Great Western Railway’s high-speed fleet of 93 intercity trains.
The first of Avanti West Coast’s new fleet of trains has entered static testing at Hitachi Rail’s Newton Aycliffe factory in the North East of England.
