Ahead of remembrance day, Greater Anglia has unveiled a special livery that is dedicated to the fallen veterans in armed conflicts.

Poppies are currently on sale at a number of Greater Anglia stations, but this special Poppy livery has been applied to Stadler Class 755 No. 755414 and includes the words, Lest We Forget.

The livery will remain on the train year round and will operate between Ipswich and Felixstowe, Lowestoft, Cambridge and Peterborough; between Norwich and Cambridge/Stansted Airport, Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft and Sheringham; and between Marks Tey and Sudbury.

Two other trains are due to receive the special livery, a Class 745 as well as a Class 720 train.

“This special livery is dedicated to veterans and recognises their service and sacrifice, along with all those who give so much in service of their country.

“The train will pass through communities across East Anglia to honour those who have fallen in armed conflicts, and we are proud to unveil this livery alongside local veterans and representatives from the Royal British Legion.”

Martin Beable, Greater Anglia’s Managing Director
