What is being bought
The Mk-4 Rolling Stock is a mixture of passenger and driver trailer vehicles. TfWR has purchased the following types: - Tourist Open End (TOE); - Tourist Open (TO); - Tourist Open Disabled (TOD); - Service Vehicle (SV); - Premium Open Disabled (POD); and - Driver Van Trailer (DVT). The rolling stock was purchased in two (2) tranches: - Tranche 1 – most recently operated by LNER; and - Tranche 2 – most recently operated by Grand Central. The Mk 4 vehicles have been formed into rakes consisting of one of each type of vehicle together with a Class 67 Vehicle. The current livery of the combined fleet will be mixed and not instantly recognisable as TfWR operated trains. There are also issues with compliance of the Grand Central fleet with regards to PRM regulations. In addition to this the LNER vehicles are vinyl wrapped and are already showing signs of aging with a dull appearance, blemishes and breaks in the vinyl. To address the brand identity and PRM issues TfWR contracted DG8, a rail industrial design consultancy, to facilitate and produce concepts, designs and costings based upon the working groups requirements and compliance with industry standards. The current re-branding exclude the Class 67 locomotive that is used to haul the Mk-4 Rolling Stock. TfWR are now seeking a supplier or suppliers that can provide the services stated in the RfP.
