In a phased introduction, they will replace TfW’s older trains, with fourteen set to be in service by Spring next year (2025). hese trains will be introduced over the coming months onto the Merthyr, Aberdare and Treherbert lines, replacing older trains, with 14 units in total in service by Spring 2025. These trains will run along these lines until late 2025 when they will begin to move over to the Rhymney and Vale of Glamorgan lines as the brand-new Tram-Trains enter passenger service.

Great units that have certainly gotten praise from the customers. I'm sure tfw do have an option to order additional units if they wish in the future I know a batch was proposed as part of the additional services to Gloucester and Bristol TM
