Plans for battery operated trains between Aylesbury and London

Train operator Chiltern Railways has unveiled its 'Right Route' to 2030 vision with stakeholders and parliamentarians in Westminster. 

The ambitious proposal sets out how Chiltern intends to deliver easier, greener, and better rail services through investment in new trains over the next decade. 

The vision was developed following research that Chiltern commissioned to ask customers, stakeholders and colleagues what they wanted Chiltern to look like from their perspective by 2030. 

Chiltern, owned by Arriva, is about to invite proposals from manufacturers for new trains to replace its 33-year old diesels that operate primarily on the operator's commuter route between Aylesbury and London. 

Those proposals may include the use of battery or battery-electric hybrid trains.
