Aurora Trains Under Fire | Nottingham News

from Nottingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The East Midlands Mayor is furious over ongoing train chaos, slamming East Midlands Railway for failing to deliver reliable service — especially with their new Aurora trains (Class 810) plagued by toilet and AC failures. While EMR blames manufacturing delays and maintenance issues affecting both the new fleet and older Class 222 trains, the RMT union is escalating pressure, warning of planned 24-hour strikes this weekend and industrial action across August. Despite EMR insisting the trains passed all safety checks, passengers and staff are feeling the strain as timetables remain reduced — but the rollout of the new trains continues, one step at a time.
