Siemens advances UK rail manufacturing hub with £20m investment

Siemens has begun construction on a new £20 million bogie assembly and service centre in Goole, East Yorkshire. The 145,000 sq ft facility, delivered by Caddick Construction and designed by AHR Architects, will form a key part of the developing Goole Rail Village. Scheduled for completion in spring 2026, the centre will support the production and maintenance of rail bogies and wheelsets for international transport networks.

Built on a 3.7-acre site adjacent to Siemens’ existing train manufacturing plant, the development includes supporting infrastructure such as parking and site access. The project is part of Siemens Mobility’s wider UK strategy to scale up its advanced rail technology capabilities.

The Goole facility adds to Caddick’s expanding portfolio of industrial projects in the North, which also includes Schneider Electric’s £42 million manufacturing plant in Scarborough. These developments align with broader regional ambitions to attract investment into green energy and transport manufacturing.
