From December 2012, a programme of refurbishment started, which will ultimately cover the entire fleet of 474 vehicles.[6] Interior improvements include new universal access toilets, provision of wheelchair spaces, and flip-up seating next to the doorways.[6] The first refurbished set, 4-car set K12, was returned to revenue service on 11 January 2013.[7]
