NGEMUs as you suggest - the first NGEMU won't even be in passenger
service for another 2 months!


Well I was quoting from last month's MR, though on another read it's
unclear - the DfT state "the Thameslink project will also introduce
new vehicles", but in the table beside Roger has them as 25 377s from
Southern. But then a couple of pages on in the Thameslink article the
latter is sort of framed as his own suggestion.

If only he were around to clarify.
