Default First passenger service journey for LUL 09 stock

So the 09s entered passenger service before the 378s? Didn't see that
one coming...


Yes... but worth noting they're only testing one 2009ts train on an
occasional basis for now, whereas the 378s have already completed
testing and are in series production.

When they finally sort whatever the current hold up is there will
immediately be several 378s running on a full time basis, and
hopefully they'll be quickly followed by the rest of the fleet. The
same won't be true of the 2009ts for another 6 months.
