This video shows the current train fleet (June 2023) along with the future rolling stock and past rolling stock for this operator.
London Northwestern currently operate a fleet of class 350 Desiro in 4 sub classes. These trains have 2+2 or 3+2 seating throughout and operate all LNR services. LNR have previously operated class 319 of which the last few are currently leaving the operator and class 230 D Trains on the Marson Vale line. In the future 3 class 150 Sprinter from Northern will be joining LNR along with 36 new class 730/2 Aventra trains which will replace the class 350/2.
West Midlands Railway currently operate 4 sub classes of class 172 Turbostar on unelectrified Snow Hill routes which have 2+2 seating. The new class 196 CAF Civity have replaced the class 170 Turbostar trains. The class 323 with 2+3 seating will be replaced by the class 730/0 Aventra trains. In the past class 150 and class 153 Sprinter have been used. WMR also operate 2 People Mover class 139 units.
With the existing and past West Midlands Trains train fleet/rolling stock units have interworked between LNR and WMR however once all the new trains are in service there will be a more limited overlap between the LNR and WMR trains fleets since the class 730 order was changed towards providing fewer LNR branded 5 carriage units and more WMR branded 3 carriage units.
The train fleet information is correct as possible of June 2023 and future train fleet dates are based for the planned introduction for passenger services. Past Train Fleet is based on when the current West Midlands Trains franchise has been in operation.
