I'm sure if TfL/Bombardier got stephen hawking and some rocket scientists on a retainer they could after some serious brainstorming sessions figure out a way to build a 6 car 378. Oi, pay attention, the naughty boy at the back! As already mentioned in this thread and others, the DC line will be getting new 4-car Aventras to replace the 5-car 378s. So, far from any rocket scientists, it won't even need any retards like you to figure out a way to build 6-car 378s. There won't be any more 378s built. So you're answer to why they're not using 378s on the goblin is because they're not. Please translate that into English? Sorry, I was trying to comprehend your tortured logic. Clearly I failed probably because there wasn't any to start with. I realise English isn't your native language, but I wonder if your translator generated "you're" instead of "your" in that garbled sentence? Perhaps you're using obsolete software to translate what passes for your thoughts into English? Awww, have you really had to fall back on pointing out typos? Never mind, don't get upset, you'll think up a proper counterpoint again one day! They're not typos. They're illiteracy. Your translation software needs upgrading. You're on thin ice here since I'm damn sure if I searched back through all your posts I could find some typos but I have better things to do with my life. If you're idea of a riposte is typo spotting then knock yourself out but you're simply coming across as desperate. When its a continuation of a previous order that rule generally doesn't apply which is how they managed to build all those extra cars to extend the ELL trains to 5 cars. It's not a continuation of an existing order. If TfL had had any forsight it could easily have been. -- Spud |

I know you have trouble comprehending, as well as writing, English, Says the man who just added a redundant comma after "writing" (yes, it is, don't even bother to argue otherwise). Ah , that nice warm feeling of irony ![]() but if you slowly re-read what I wrote, you may manage to understand that I was not pointing typos, which we all make. Don't back pedal, its pathetic. I was pointing out that your bile generator is illiterate, which makes many of your posts hard to understand (perhaps that's a mercy?). No, they're not hard to understand for anyone who isn't in the first stages of senility unlike you. Why are you so convinced that TfL would want to be buying more of an obsolete design, when an improved, more efficient model is available? Not everyone is as thick as you. I've already stated why. But I guess it was all a bit complex for you to follow so you decided to hunt for typos instead. I guess being a senior citizen your get tired quickly and the old brain gets a bit foggy doesn't it? -- Spud |

At least my memory is intact… Why are you so convinced that TfL would want to be buying more of an obsolete design, when an improved, more efficient model is available?

Are they planning on buying a whole new set of EMUs just for the goblin then? I find that hard to believe. TfL are buying 45 four-car 710s for use on the West Anglia Routes and the Watford DC, GOBLIN and Romford to Upminster lines 'Tis true, 31 class 710/1 AC only for Chenford & Romford- Upminster &. 14 class 710/2 AC/DC for Watford & Goblin. So, spud is correct, 3rd rail would have worked for the local passenger service on the Goblin but that's all. Another AC link across NE London "IS A GOOD IDEA" if only to create the electrified network that this country needs. We no longer seem to have the commonsense that other countries have, we shave pennies from new schemes just to save pennies rather than consider the future. AFAIK, even the link between the N.L. line & the GWML at Acton Mainline isn't going to be wired! Who really cares anyway, the engineers will finish the Goblin wiring & probably before the new trains arrive, the passengers will have a few more seats, (untill the Barking Riverside extension opens.....) & Walthamstow will be a liitle bit quieter. Maybe (!) Netwirk Raik will learn yet another lession re. project management, but I think not. FWIW I was alive & taking an interest in the N.E, London electrification when B.R. & it's contractors managed to get the job done on time & without closing down the services. Progress..........

There's a letter in RAIL asking why the link to the ECML at Harringay isn't being electrified... I was sure it was, I remember Murphy being awarded the contract! |

Since you seem to equate it to the difference between camshaft driven 313s and the 378s I presume the 710s must be powered by some sort of dilithium warp engines? -- Spud |

Though it has a certain amusement factor too. Keep it up, I need a laugh in the mornings ![]() Yup, another para, another incorrect apostrophe. At least your illiteracy is consistent. I've already stated why. But I guess it was all a bit complex for you to follow so you decided to hunt for typos instead.

Since you seem to equate it to the difference between camshaft driven 313s and the 378s I presume the 710s must be powered by some sort of dilithium warp engines? You just don't seem to get the concept of TfL inviting bids for new trains to run on several of its routes, and the winning bidder proposing its current model of EMU, not an obsolete, out-of production model. Here's what the manufacturer said at the time: "These next-generation AVENTRA trains will feature an innovative design with optimised performance, including reduced weight, energy consumption, maintenance costs and high reliability, providing substantial benefits to both TfL and its passengers traveling on key London Overground routes, including the newly acquired West Anglia Inner Metro Service." Or, for a more detailed comparison: http://www.railjournal.com/index.php/main-line/bombardier-focuses-on-mass-and-maintenance-with-aventra.html I can't manage your illiterate drivel, but I can just imagine your scathing, condesceding posts if TfL had instead ordered more of the heavier, less efficient, higher maintenance and less reliable obsolete trains. But at least it's interesting that you've suddenly become the biggest fan of the 378s. I realise you're losing your memory, but perhaps you can ask your carer to help find your older posts that attacked the slow 378s, and suggested TfL should have bought S stock trains for LO. |
