A new £1.6m wash plant has opened at London Midland’s Tyseley depot. The new facility replaces a much older washer that was coming to the end of its working life, and compliments the depot’s underframe washer that was commissioned in 2007.
Network Rail has funded the new wash plant and it is leased back to London Midland.
The washer has 3 settings: no wash, wash-detergent and wash-acid. Each Tyseley based train will pass through the washer at least once every 48 hours.
