Default Overheating 95s
apart from a few class 465s

Without going off-topic, I notice only the Eversholt-owned 465/0 and 465/1 have had their original GTO drives replaced by new Hitachi IGBT drives.

The Angel-owned 465/2, 465/9 and 466 retain their original GTO drives.

It's strange when you're at a Southeastern station and hear a new IGBT unit coupled to an older GTO unit depart in multiple.

Do Angel have any plans to upgrade their Networker fleet to Hitachi IGBTs?
