FCC PREPARES FOR CLASS 700s EXISTING OPERATOR PILOTS NEW ORDER

摘要

1,140 vehicles: that is a big order in anyone's book. For Siemens, which won an order of this size for new Thameslink trains in June 2013, it was one of the largest-ever rolling stock orders in the firm's history. For comparison, the recent Crossrail contract won by Bombardier is half the size: 585 firm vehicles (65x9-car) and 162 on option.
