Transport for London (TfL) has unveiled its ‘New Tube for London’ train which could be carrying passengers on the Piccadilly line from 2022.
London Underground is planning to issue a formal invitation to tender for 250 new deep-level Tube trains in early 2015.
Five manufacturers, Alstom, Bombardier, CAF, Hitachi and Siemens, have now been shortlisted to supply the new trains, which will go into service on the Piccadilly, Bakerloo, Central and Waterloo & City lines in the next decade.

Although the new trains will be built with a driver’s cab, the vehicles will be capable of full automation.
TfL has said it plans to award the contract for the new trains, which is expected to be between £1 billion and £2.5 billion, in 2016.
Launching the start of a new exhibition of the design at King’s Cross St Pancras Underground station, Mike Brown MVO, managing director of London Underground, said: “The design respects the past but also looks to the future with the very latest technology; including walk-through carriages and wider doors to enable people to get on and off quickly and air-cooling for the first time on the deep-level lines.”
