I've no idea what info you've got but I can say there's probably a good 40% chance of an off peak Cambridge being a 379. Unfortunately as I understand it the 379 fleet comes off lease in the summer (August?) And is earmarked for Gautrain. It would be ideal for them to remain on WA until 720 has arrived but sadly I don't believe this will happen.
On weekdays there is only one pair of 379s off peak and six pairs of 317s. At weekends there are four or five pairs of 379s so the probability swings in favour of 379s.
Did I read somewhere that if on the off chance they do go to South Africa to bolster their fleet, it wasn't all the 379s that where required?
Doesn't the Pyongyang metro use second hand Berlin U-bahn trains?
North Korea has to curcumvent international sanctions and will spend as much as it needs to do it. They also use Chinese locomotives and the predecessor subway cars to those U-bhan ones were Chinese anyway. Let's keep it to the capitalist world for simplicity.
It's because their current stock is Electrostar and obviously bombardier no longer make that product
0800up is booked for 90/DVT
many thanks
Yes they have been out most weekends lately.
I wonder if it was this? https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/F22519/2020-03-11/detailed I'd seen this before on realtime and wondered what it was...
Better late than never to admit that I suppose. 720s were never going to be ready until a few months after testing began and as far as I can tell, despite a unit or two having been delivered some time ago, testing still hasn't begun.
It also doesn't mention what stock will be used instead.
I read it that she wanted any financial payments made from Bombardier to Greater Anglia to be passed on to commuters. What on earth does the woman think GA can do about software issues?
