Brand new CAF Class 197 trains will be introduced for passenger service on the Cambrian line from September this year following the completion of staff training and vehicle testing on the route. This is part of our £800m investment to upgrade and modernise TfW’s fleet, which is delivering better trains and services for passengers across Wales.
