Hull Trains’ new fleet is paying dividends when it comes to reliability, earning the open access operator a ‘golden spanner’.
The Hitachi Paragon fleet was introduced just prior to the pandemic, a cool £60 million investment in rolling stock. Five new trains serve the direct route to London, with the final 802 model introduced as the FirstGroup entity celebrated 21 years of operations.
Hull Trains has now been named ‘Best in Class’ at a national awards ceremony to recognise the most reliable fleets in the railway industry.
