Your guide to the new Merseyrail Trains - Video
Final preparations are being made to introduce the new trains, which could happen as early as Monday 23 January. Further updates will be made once the date of entry into passenger service is confirmed.
The new fleet of 777s are set to modernise rail services across the Merseyrail network.
Direct input from members of the public helped to design the trains, resulting in pioneering, state-of-the-art features that will transform how you travel.
New trains will stop at different points of the platform to current trains and doors will open in different locations
The new trains have buttons on the inside and outside that you will need to push to open the doors.
The new sliding step will meet the platform edge allowing level boarding for everyone.
The lighting around the door will turn green when safe to board or alight the train. The lighting around the door will turn red when doors are about to close and a beeping noise will sound. Doors will have sensitive edges, so please remember to stand clear and do not try to board the train when the doors are closing.
