"A Wabtec spokesperson said: "We have made the difficult decision
to enter a period of consultation with regards to the future of
our Doncaster facility.

"Following a comprehensive review of the product lines and cost
challenges at the Doncaster plant, our proposal is to complete
our current projects, then withdraw from the vehicle maintenance
market in the UK and close the site.

“A formal statutory consultation period will begin in the coming
weeks, during which we will actively engage with colleagues. We
are currently evaluating several options, including the potential
consolidation of remaining component production at another UK
location, or relocation to a nearby site."
