More loos for your choo choos - Southeastern adding toilets to its City Beam trains

Final contractual agreements are expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks, at which point detailed final designs can get underway. Once complete, accessible toilets will be fitted on all 30 of the Class 707 'City Beam' trains which serve south-east London and parts of Kent, carrying thousands of passengers every day.

The installation of toilets on the City Beam fleet is part of a wider commitment by Southeastern to making it simpler and easier to access public toilets across the network. Earlier this year, Southeastern opened their first 'Changing Places' toilet in Margate and has also introduced new accessible toilets at Canterbury East and Herne Bay.

We know how important it is for customers to be able to simply and quickly access toilets when they are travelling. Earlier this year, Southeastern upgraded its customer information screens to show if on-board toilets are working, allowing customers to make informed decisions about their journeys before boarding while also investing in more cleaning staff to clean and maintain facilities.
