00:00Company management say a fix has been found for leaking air conditioning on the Tyne and Dweer Metro's new trains.
00:07Water poured from the ceilings of the brand new train stock during hot weather last summer, forcing some services out
00:14of use.
00:15Operator Nexus and manufacturer Stadler say condensation had been draining too slowly through the system, leading to leaks inside carriages.
00:24After several months of testing, both organisations say a robust solution is finally ready to roll out, with confidence that
00:32it will work.
00:33They expect the full timetable to be run by the new fleet by this summer, with all 46 trains in
00:39service by the end of 2026 across the region.
