On a bright summer's day, East Midlands Trains Class 222001 UK diesel multiple unit (DMU), flashes at speed through a virtually deserted Wellingborough station on its way north on a passenger service from London St. Pancras in September 2011.
News Update:
Seeing East Midlands Trains colourful livery of red, white, orange
and red flashing along the railway tracks, will soon become a thing
of the past.
Abellio will take over the East Midlands Trains franchise on Saturday
18th August 2019. The Class 43 HST Intercity 125 and Class 222
diesel multiple unit will gradually be phased out by brand new
Hitachi trains that will be a variant of the bullet-nosed Class 800
bio-mode DMU.
The new trains will have a lavender livery and be branded with 'EMR'
on both sides.
