Class 395 with First Class?

[superalbs]

I was looking at RealTime Trains for Faversham today, and I came across this peculiar Class 395 working that states itself as having First Class seating.

I thought these units weren't given First Class because Southeastern considered the service to be 'premium' anyway?

Just a mis-entry in the TT writing, nothing to get excited about.

395s definitely don't have first class.

Indeed, everyone gets shaken from side to side the same. Admittedly, some are worse than others.

Shaken ?

I would say Javelin seating is better than 1st class in the networkers or Electrostars.

First class is a bit of a joke in the electrostars though.

Some Javelins exhibit very uncomfortable side to side wobbling at speed.

I guess that's part of the compromise in having a hybrid train - one that can run as effectively on lower speed lines as well as high speed.

I've always assumed it's a fault because not all the trains do it.IIRC Steve Backley was the last unit I experienced a wobbly ride on.
