And the colours or rings are too simmilar.


Yeah , I'm of the same opinion. I said in another post the other
week that there are plenty of 2 colour combinations they could have
chosen - choosing something so similar to the Underground colours
was just daft and will lead to confusion.


But does it matter if the service is Tube-esque?


With their Victoria Line style seating, the 378s are more
"Underground" in feel than the subsurface fleet. At least that is how
it appears from the pictures I have seen.


Not just from photos. On my one trip on them so far (from West Brompton to
Shepherd's Bush) I thought the seats set new standards of discomfort.
