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?

Who owns the 365s? They're GTO-controlled too.
