What projects (new trains, electrification, new stations etc) are you most looking forward to that are still currently planned to complete in 2021 (even if you suspect they may be delayed)?
Let’s try to keep it positive
I’ll start: Class 360 electric trains to Corby.
So many to choose from
The Northern Line Extension is probably the closest infrastructure project to me. Others due this year include the Werrington diveunder. And maybe we might see Crossrail at last?
New services on existing track scheduled to start this year :
Ebbw Vale Line from Newport
Wolverhampton -Walsall via Willenhall
Okehampton
Trains: Classes 197, 484, 730 and 803 are due this year. Classes 196, 701 and 777 should all have entered service last year. Of these seven, only the 777 is a completely new design for the UK, so I'll go with that.
But perhaps the one I'm most looking forward to is the restoration of the Brighton Belle, although that project seems to have gone quiet recently - the web page has not been updated for over a year, and is still suggesting services could start in August 2020.
