    The British Rail Class 458 is an electric multiple-unit passenger train built by Alstom at Washwood Heath between 1998 and 2002 for South West Trains. They were the first new fleet of trains to be delivered following the privatisation of British Rail.The fleet of 30 four-car trains was ordered in 1997, with the first train delivered in October 1998.The trains entered passenger service between 2000 and 2003 and are maintained at Wimbledon depot.They form part of Alstom's Juniper family of trains, which also includes Classes 334 and 460. Between 2013 and 2016, they were merged with the mechanically similar Class 460 fleet and reconfigured into 36 five-cars units, designated Class 458/5, to improve capacity.The trains are now used by South Western Railway.

    There is No Release.
    This is the Proposals Forum where people suggest what they would like to see and why.

    If you're hoping on upgraded Mk3 EMUs I'd say the 317s are needed first.

    this train hasn't been in the game and it will do great on the southwestern suburban routes

    this trains would help more trains on the southwestern line service and Alstom transportation should have awards for the trains they built at birmingham

    Depends on which 458. The 458/0 or the refurbished 458/5. If DTG do get around to making any 458s they would probably be in SWT livery since they currently (I think) have the licensing rights from SWT. Unless they want to see if they could get an agreement with SWR so maybe they could do both SWT and SWR
