The Class 365 'Networker Express' electric multiple units were built between 1994 and 1995 at Holgate Carriage Works, York. Incidentally, the 365s were the last train units to be produced at the works before it closed in 1996. The entire fleet of 41 sets were in mainline service from 9th December 1996, with 21 sets operating at present (2020) by Great Northern trains. |
