Our expertise lies in our “cradle to grave” approach to asset management, ensuring our fleets deliver their full potential throughout the whole asset lifecycle. This approach has enabled us to procure, finance, and manage a high-quality and diversified portfolio of high-speed trains, regional and commuter passenger multiple-units.
Angel Trains is at the forefront of developing sustainable rolling stock solutions that address the industry-wide challenge of decarbonisation. As part of this, we are working in partnership with Magtec to convert Diesel Multiple Units into low emission self-charging hybrid drives, enabling smarter, quieter and cleaner rail travel.
