Swiss company Stadler's won the £16.3m contract, towards which
Croydon Council contributes £3m.
Sorry to reply to my own post, but I forgot to add, it's another kick
in the teeth for Bombardier. OK, this is nowhere near as lucrative a
project as the Thameslink one, which was lost out to Siemens, but it's
still surely something they would have hoped to win - Bombardier made
the current Croydon tram stock, didn't they?
Yes, but in Vienna, not Derby.
