🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #Transport for Wales has introduced its first three new Class 197e trains on the Cambrian Coast Line, replacing trains that have served the route for more than 30 years. Built in #Wales, the new trains offer improved comfort and accessibility, with faster Wi-Fi, power sockets, bilingual digital screens, air conditioning and accessible toilets. The launch is part of the #Welsh Government’s £800 million investment in new trains across Wales and the borders. Platforms at six stations have also been raised to make boarding easier for passengers with reduced mobility. More trains are expected to join the route over the coming months. Until late 2026, passengers travelling between the Cambrian Coast and Shrewsbury or Birmingham must change trains at Machynlleth. Services between Aberystwyth and #Birmingham remain unaffected. Passengers are advised to check timetables before travelling. https://news.tfw.wales/news/first-new-trains-enter-service-on-the-cambrian-coast-line
