The Alstom/Serco/Metronet years 2005-2009

Following Alstom's abandoning of the test track a number of NR test trains operated on the line.

The line is now leased by Metronet (now LUL) in order to test and commission the next generation of London Underground trains, known as Sub Surface Lines (SSL) trains.

Serco Assurance were awarded the contract to manage the whole of the test track of behalf of Metronet (LUL), which will give them the opportunity to attract other interested parties to the line.
