Lots 1 and 2 of Phase 1, supposedly for future electric TRU services, amount to 121 units.
Assuming the TPE procurement of trains for longer distances is separate, how do Northern plan to deploy 121 new trains (3/4-car)?
Does it include BEMUs for places like Wigan, Bradford, York and Hull, and maybe Calder Valley services, which will work partially via TRU?
Lot 3 (6 units) looks like the replacement of the class 769 bi-modes.
