I'm wondering if this is a clear indication they are moving towards 'Thameslink style' fixed formation trains, Crossrail were originally proposing running two 5 x 20m units in multiple, allowing them to run singly offpeak... Paul S Thameslink trains can be 4 or 8 cars long. I think you mean "LUL- style" fixed formations. No, the proposed TL trains we are talking about here are very definitely defined as 8 or 12 car only (well 8 and 12 assuing 20 m lenght cars to mee thte short and long unit spec.). -- Nick Sorry, I thought the OP meant the *current* trains, since I use the stopping service quite frequently! |
