Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government when East Midlands Railway's fleet of Class 810 Aurora trains which were meant to enter service in May will now be introduced into passenger service.
The Class 810 ‘Aurora’ trains are currently undergoing testing by Hitachi, and we expect the first units to be delivered to East Midlands Railway in the Autumn, with a phased roll-out during 2026.
