The British Rail Class 230 or D-train is a planned Vivarail design diesel electric multiple unit to be built for the British rail network. The units will be converted from London Underground D78 Stock. It is proposed to run 75 units of two or three cars per unit.〔(D78 Stock Conversion is Go ) ''Modern Railways'' December 2014 pages 37-38〕 They will become known as Class 230 under TOPS. A prototype was produced for testing and accreditation in August 2015, with introduction to service in 2016.〔The Engineer http://www.theengineer.co.uk/blog/d-railed-old-tube-trains-gain-a-new-lease-of-life/1020946.article〕 They are to be tested in mainline service on the Great Western Railway (GWR) network.〔First Great Western Direct Award〕 ==D78 Stock conversion==
In November 2014, Vivarail bid for, and successfully bought, 150 driving motor cars and 300 carriages of ex-District Line D78 Stock from London Underground, which were being replaced by S Stock, so that the subsurface lines (Circle, District, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan) could have a common rolling stock fleet compatible with a new ATO system. The stated purpose of the D-train is to ameliorate a perceived shortage of affordable, modern rolling stock on Britain's regional rail routes, resulting from the slow pace of electrification.
