The Swansea Land Train is one of these attractions and operates along the promenade between Blackpill Lido and Mumbles. The existing diesel-powered train has been in service since 2002 and is approaching the end of its operational life. The Council is therefore seeking a modern, fully electric replacement that supports its sustainability objectives and continues to provide a high-quality visitor experience. This project is funded through the Local Growth Fund and as a result we ideally need to take delivery of the train by 31st March 2027. Swansea Council is seeking an experienced and competent supplier to manufacture, supply and deliver one electric road train locomotive and three passenger carriages for operation along the Swansea Bay promenade. The successful supplier will support the full delivery process, including manufacture, transportation to the UK, customs clearance where applicable, commissioning, operator training and handover. Due to the nature of this procurement, the successful supplier will be required to adhere to agreed delivery programmes, installation schedules and contractual requirements to ensure the train is operational within the specified timeframe. The Council's preferred delivery date is by 31 March 2027. Alternative delivery dates up to and including 1 April 2027 will be considered, but tenderers should provide the earliest achievable delivery date. Tenderers must demonstrate a proven track record in the manufacture and supply of electric land trains within the UK market with experience of delivering high-quality, reliable vehicles suitable for commercial passenger operations. Tenderers must demonstrate excellent customer service, including responsive and effective after-sales support and a full capability to support and maintain vehicles throughout the United Kingdom. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 31600000, 34000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKL - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £330,000 - **Contract Period:** 14/12/2026 to 31/03/2027 ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F101559-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-10-27T13:30:29.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-27T16:00:32.963Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-07913e
