Stadler to Continue Maintaining FLIRT Trains for Greater Anglia

Stadler Rail Service UK has been awarded a full-service contract extension to continue maintaining Greater Anglia’s fleet of 58 FLIRT bi-mode and electric multiple units for the next two years.

Both parties have signed a full extension that seeks to ensure the continuity of both maintenance and technical support for one of the UK’s most active fleets.

Greater Anglia’s fleet has now surpassed 50 million miles in passenger service – equivalent to over 2,000 trips around the world. The trains have contributed to the transformation of Greater Anglia’s services throughout the region, improving accessibility, capacity, passenger comfort and overall resilience.

Paul Patrick, Managing Director for Stadler Rail Service UK, said:

We’re proud to continue our successful partnership with Greater Anglia. The contract extension is a strong vote of confidence in our team and the quality of our services. Over the past ten years, we’ve significantly grown our footprint in the UK, with operations across the country including Norwich, Newcastle, Liverpool, Glasgow and Cardiff, creating skilled jobs and investing in local communities.

We look forward to building on this success and further strengthening our position in the UK rail industry.
