New trains being built as part of the transformation of the Wales and Borders network have reached another key milestone as testing gets underway in Europe.
The Fast Light Intercity and Regional Trains (FLIRTs) are being built by leading train manufacturer Stadler and are now being tested in Switzerland, where the company’s headquarters are located.
They will then be transferred to South Wales for further tests on the Wales and Borders network, where they will begin to enter service from the end of next year.
