Southeastern has undertaken heavy duty cleaning of its trains as part of a £5.7 million improvement project.

The project involves 339 trains having their lighting, seating and toilets spruced up at three depots (Gillingham, Ramsgate and Slade Green). The ‘spring clean’ is part of Southeastern’s scheme to improve its trains and stations by October 2016.

Southeastern has also started repainting and repairing 166 stations across the country, including Pluckley, Longfield and Meopham.
