Description

The tender will be split into separate lots, those submitting bids, can bid on individual lots, all lots and can also submit a bid against lot/s as a joint venture.

An overview is provided below of all the requirements and how the bids will be divided into sections. The lots have been divided into 7 categories: - Lot 1 - Passenger Diversions (80x and Night Riviera (cl.57 and Mk3 coaches)) and associated Empty Coaching Stock (ECS) moves to/from LNP via WLL, via GWML & South West Sidings (SWS), and Reading Train Care Depot (RTCD). - Lot 2 - Electric/hybrid loco plus Driver (with 1000v Electric Train Supply (ETS)) - Lot 3 - London North Pole 387s/Heathrow Express (HEx) units - Lot 4 - Fairwater Yard - Didcot Railway Centre - Lot 5 - South Marston and High Output Operations Base (HOOB) (if required) - Lot 6 - Didcot Railway Centre (DRC) - Lot 7 - Reading Upper Triangle To have a pool of trained Drivers and PICs to deliver GWR passenger diversions and GWR Depot Strategy when required. There will be a requirement to maintain competency, for Drivers and PICs on all applicable routes, traction and locations. A variation will then be issued for each possession where there is a requirement for Depot Strategy (only applicable locations) and/or passenger diversions and for what duration.
