Ten trains have been ordered for the Elizabeth Line from Alstom in Derby. The order, which is reported to be worth at least ?400 million, has come at a time when the site was running out of rolling stock orders and faced closure. The Derby works became part of Alstom when that company acquired Bombardier Transportation in 2022, but trains have been built in the city since the nineteenth century. Manufacturing supports dozens of supply chain companies in the East Midlands, some of which had also been set to close along with the Alstom works.
