378s refresh
Seems like the Overground 378s are having a refresh. New seat moquettes and a
slightly different external paint/vinyl job. Looks quite nice. |

How old are they? There were several orders, so the ages vary. The oldest carriages have been in service just over 10 years, the youngest only four. |

A rare example of a decent train - looks nice inside and out, comfortable and with decent acceleration (when the drivers can be bothered). Naturally this situration couldn't last so we now have the fugly, expensive and late 710s. |

Lost revenue for TfL on the Goblin, having to pay to keep the diesels a bit longer and modify some 378s to run on it. I know Bombardier coughed up some cash but I bet it doesn't cover everything. |
