Chrysalis undertook a 13-month project to refurbish 114 vehicles at our client’s premises. This project involved a full interior strip out, replacement of floor covering, re-moquette of all luggage racks and dado panels, and a re-paint of the toilets and vestibule areas. We also fitted LED lighting, privacy screens and seating. The project was delivered on external sidings via a purpose-built access platform at our customer’s request. All vehicles were delivered on time and to budget at a rate of two full vehicles per week.
Our Chrysalis team have recently completed a full interior and exterior refurbishment of 16 x 4-car class 333 units in Leeds. The programme includes a new exterior livery and refreshed interiors with newly refurbished seats and new LED lighting. This refurbishment is a part of Northern’s wide-ranging plan to improve all aspects of their network.
Chrysalis undertook an interior refresh and exterior surface corrosion repair project for Siemens on 127 x Class 450 units and 45 x Class 444 units, a total of 733 vehicles. The scope of work included painting all luggage racks, seats, wall and seat grab handles, vestibules, cabs and toilets for each unit. Chrysalis Fabrication managed the powder coating and wet spraying of key components such as grab handles and toilet doors, ensuring the highest quality control and finish.
On the exterior, any surface corrosion or damaged areas were prepped, filled, primed, painted and polished. This included work to the cant rail, sole bar, body ends, around door push buttons and damage down the main body side of the unit.
Siemens recognised the quality and workmanship delivered in this project by awarding Chrysalis Rail the ‘Best Service Supplier in the Rail Sector’ award for 2015.
