Goblin electric trains delayed by three months
In message
-sept ember.org, at 10:39:12 on Sun, 20 May 2018, Recliner remarked: ISTR that they are committed to the West Midlands franchise. (Makes sense, they are the other major 172 operator, although I'm surprised that Chiltern don't want them.) Fellow Arriva TOC Chiltern probably would like to have them, but stock allocation is a DfT decision. At least 1 unit is earmarked for the Coventry-Kenilworth-Leamington service from December. I'm assuming that they might need some works attention before that, if only to have a toilet fitted. That would be quite expensive, and a large disabled loo will take out a significant proportion of the seats in a two-car set. Doesn't appear to worry TOCs running with 2-car 170's plus disabled tiolet in their fleet. https://www.crosscountrytrains.co.uk..._seat_plan.pdf -- Roland Perry |
