Class 745, 745003

British Rail Class 745 25kV 12 car Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) 745003 working the 1P28 12:30 (12:37 RT) Greater Anglia London Liverpool Street- Norwich service train northbound at Stratford Station on the Great Eastern Main Line in London (UK).

 

The Class 745 EMU's were a direct replacement in early 2020 for the ageing 30 year old plus Class 90 electric locomotives and their slam door British Rail Mk3b coaches which previously worked the Norwich- London Liverpool Street express services..

 

745003 was built by Stadler Rail at their facility in Bussnang Switzerland as one of the Stadler 'FLIRT' (Fast Light Intercity and Regional Train) modular family of trainsets.
