This afternoon I'm here at np aerospace they're actually building the new very light rail right here in Coventry it's actually being worked on at the moment assembled. It's made of carbon fibre, this is quite unique there is nothing like it anywhere else in the world using automotive technology some of the best newest technology anywhere in the world come with me and just see the length of it this is going to go down streets in coventry down residential roads it's not massively big smaller than a bus smaller than a coach.

It'll fit in really nicely. Just look at this. This is already happening within three weeks they've been working on this. This is fantastic it's sleek, it's just got everything about it that we want to see in Coventry completely revolutionary and we'll actually change how we move and how we how we move about in Coventry just look at it it's going to be like something else nothing we've seen ever in coventry really excited about this. This will be tested early next year on track ready for full development and production by 2024/25 the first routine Coventry and this is your first glimpse of it here today.
