Inside Britain's biggest trains refurbishment to keep hundreds on track

Britain's Largest Train Refurbishment Project

Southern's entire Electrostar fleet has undergone a significant refurbishment, now featuring phone-charging points and improved wifi.

A £100m project has refurbished over 300 London commuter trains operating in and out of Victoria station, ensuring they remain in service for another 15 years.

The project, which took five years to complete, was celebrated at Southern's Selhurst depot in south London, with the last of the 304 "Electrostar" trains set to return to service.
