Hello, Please could you share any draft or confirmed roll-out schedule for the new trains which are due to enter service on the London Overground line to Chingford from (May) 2018. These are referenced in this TfL press release: https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2015/june/thousands-of-london-overground-customers-set-for-new-trains Ideally, please could you share documentation at a sufficient level of detail to show when rollout is due to begin, end and which quarter or month each unit is planned for introduction into operational service. If this level of detail is not available then a higher level plan would also be acceptable. Many thanks.

Dear

TfL Ref: FOI-0227-1819

Thank you for your email received by Transport for London (TfL) on 26 April 2018.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. 

Unfortunately we do not hold the information you have requested. We are awaiting an update from the manufacturer Bombardier on the delivery dates for the new trains (Class 710). We currently anticipate the first of the new trains will be available for the London Overground route to Chingford towards the end of 2018.

Please contact us later in the year for a more definitive response.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely

Eva Hextall
