A new color scheme for Hitachi’s AT300 EMU train family. Open access operator Hull Trains has revealed the livery design of its 802 series trains to hit the tracks from December 2019 onwards.
We see a trains in a shiny blue base livery and with black front section, something many still have to get used to in the UK as yellow is no longer mandatory.
