555025 is a Class 555 unit built by Stadler in St Margrethen, Switzerland. As of late August 2026 025 still has the old class 555 announcements that don't mention the National Rail station at Northumberland Park, announces Central Station as "Central" and in a slightly clunky manner, has the older announcements for West Jesmond that sound different and has the more clunky sounding announcements for Benton.
