New Formula For Wembley
“Alstom has launched its new Pit Stop method of Train Maintenance at its West Coast Traincare Centre at Wembley. Formula One driver, Rubens Barrichello helped launch the new fleet maintenance approach at the Brent Site where Alstom maintains its fleet of Virgin Pendolinos.
Alstom built the fleet of 52 nine-coach Pendolino tilting trains and is contracted to delivering 47 trains for daily passenger service to the WCML. The fleet covers approximately 42,000 Miles every day.
The new Pit Stop will concentrate resources and engineers before the trains arrive, reducing downtime for the Pendolinos.
Kettles Ltd are proud to be “Suppliers of Choice” to Alstom, working in partnership with an acknowledged world leader in Railway Equipment & Services, helping to eliminate slips and trips in the workplace, by providing an effective Anti-Slip System that will not only perform well underfoot, but that can be cleaned successfully.
