has been a very fruitful experience and the excellent progress on-site so far is testament to that.” He adds: “For Hitachi it’s important that we get this right
because Newton Aycliffe is going to be our flagship train manufacturing facility in Europe.” When the Super Express trains begin rolling off the
production line in 2016 they will be the first true high-speed trains to be constructed in this country for over a decade. Yet,
even in the relatively short time since construction of the factory began, Hitachi won a further major order to build a fleet of AT200 regional trains for Scotland. So, even before it opens, the factory at Newton Aycliffe is
already helping to get British train manufacturing firmly back on track. If all goes well, new British-made trains may soon run in Europe!
