New press release from the DfT announcing that Bombardier have got the
contract for the 120 new carriages for the Stansted Express. Other
improvements flow from the transfer of trains from London Midland and
Clacton depot is to be reopened.


It confirms that 17 x 321s (68 cars) will transfer from LM to NXEA
(presumably these will arrive by December this year - difficult to see new
Electrostars that soon) as proposed in the various iterations of the rolling
stock plan. So it just shows how long a cascade takes to plan, never mind
new build...
