So will they have to recall all their 387s that have been sent off to GWR and GN?

I have a Premier Inn booked at Gatwick in a few months time and I look forward to seeing if GTR are still breaching contract law, consumer law, competition law and the Ticketing Settlement Agreement (see https://www.railforums.co.uk/thread...claim-against-govia-thameslink-railway.219550 )

The GTR sets are leaving Reading at the back end of this week. 3 on Friday, 3 on Saturday.

We where only saying that earlier when passing one on a Lynn & another in Cambridge sidings.

They’re not running the half hourly Gatwick terminators that made up the 4tph service though so they can probably do without the few with GN. Although as mentioned GWR’s are returning.

3 of the 387/2s from GWR will go to GX, 3 to GN to make up the 6 they were due to have in lieu of 365s.

57306 + 387202 + 387206

Was originally planned for two moves of 12 cars but there were length issues with a runaround at the Hornsey end so it will be 3 moves of 8 cars.

Have these 2 units gone onto lease with Great Northern now?

They’ll all go back to Hornsey before 3 go down to work on GX.

One of the 387s is currently being used as a grotto at Brighton, platform 8.
