History
This is a Motor Composite coach, one of five coaches that make up a five-car bi-mode set. Trains from the Hitachi family of AT300 trains, including bi-mode Class 800 and all-electric Class 801s, are due to enter service during 2026 carrying this smart red, white and blue GBR branding, which is based on a corner of the ‘Union Jack’ flag."
