Attached are 2 pictures taken from Amanda Solloways twitters, of a letter from Mark Harper,which seems to confirm that secured approval, in principal has been obtained for a total of 10 x 345 to be built for crossrail, 5 agreed back in March and 5 just been agreed.
However Mr Harper does seem to be laying an awful lot of responsibility on Alstom to deliver these 345 with lots of commitments about the future of the Derby plant.
