• Extensive interior and exterior mid-life refresh of all 36 Class 376 Electrostars;
• Enhancements include at-seat USB and power sockets, energy-efficient LED lighting and a blue exterior wrap.

This transformative programme will enhance customer comfort, improve operational efficiency and refresh a fleet that has been a cornerstone of Southeastern’s Metro services (southeasternrailway.co.uk) since its introduction in 2004.

Alstom will be specifically undertaking the engineering and providing all materials for both the interior refresh and installation of at-seat power throughout each train.

Peter Broadley, Commercial Director UK and Ireland at Alstom, said:

“We are proud to partner with Southeastern and Eversholt Rail (eversholtrail.co.uk) on this transformative mid-life upgrade for the Class 376 fleet. By delivering a refreshed, modernised fleet with enhanced passenger amenities and operational efficiency, we’re ensuring these Derby-built trains continue to provide reliable and comfortable journeys for Southeastern’s customers.

“This project is a testament to Alstom’s commitment to innovation and excellence in supporting our operators and improving passenger experience across the UK rail network.”

The work is getting underway at Southeastern’s Ashford Maintenance Centre with the first units to receive the new blue livery and LED lighting scheduled to be in customer service from the spring.

Mark Johnson, Engineering Director at Southeastern, said:

“I’m thrilled that we will be upgrading the Class 376s with our partners at Alstom and Eversholt Rail. The mid-life refresh will deliver better journeys for our customers and keep these trains in tip-top condition for years to come.

“This builds on the upgrades across our other fleets, and the newer trains we are bringing in, as well as the ongoing procurement of new trains to replace our older Networkers.

“It all adds up to great news for our passengers across South East London, East Sussex and Kent.”

The interior refresh, which includes refurbished seats and a full re-paint, will start later in the summer at the Grove Park depot, with the first units due into customer service before the end of the year.

The Class 376 Electrostar fleet was built at Alstom’s Litchurch Lane Works in Derby, the only UK facility that designs, engineers, builds and tests trains for domestic and export markets.
