The first of the new Class 230 three-car units for Transport For Wales for use on the line between Wrexham Central and Bidston arrived at Wrexham General on Monday evening from the makers at Long Marston.
The hybid unit, which can run on battery power, was seen stabled in the bay platform at Wrexham General alongside a Class 150 unit of the type they will replace.
The new Class 230 headed to Birkenhead North today (Tuesday).
The type is a rebuild of former London Transport Underground stock now equipped with diesel electric motors as produced by Vivarail.
