    Greater Anglia Class 755s (Regional Trains)

    Somebody has asked me if I knew why the 0803 today was a 1x4 755 and if it went all the way to London. Fid it and was it because there is a shortage of 745s ? Thanks in advance.

    Greater Anglia Class 755s (Regional Trains)

    Please excuse me piggy backing on this site but the 745 one seems to have vanished and I guess of readers watch both AGA FLIRT sites. I hear a 745 went on a Norwich - Southend test run on 12th January. Does anyone know why and are there anyy interesting 'future intentions' ?

    So 720s will /might reach Norwich. Guess like the 321 Norwich crews will not learn them. Expect the passengers will enjoy the 'cosy seating

    I had a dream ! If the NiN are resurected and remain booked for 2 x 755 would it be nice if hald started from Sheringham and half from Yarmouth and joined at Norwich recreating through trains of the past. Might help the loadings too !

    Greater Anglia Class 755s (Regional Trains)

    Well I never was it really that long ago ! The question could be easier in comparing a 755/4 with a four car 309. Both are fast,

    Greater Anglia Class 755s (Regional Trains)

    Mention of a 755/3 with their well chronicled acceleration on a LST - NRW service has drawn the interesting question of how the performance of the 755 would compare with a two car 309. Are any of our more seneior driver colleagues able to provide an opinion ?

    Class 745 Stadler FLIRTs

    Not reqally a reply but I still don't know how to start a new thread. Sorry ! I hear that today a 755/3 worked from LST to NRW possibly on the 0830 down so would it be a fair assumption tat they are now passed for passenger service south of Marks Tey ?

    Not trying to be facetious but something must be an issue in the cold / snow. I was trying to consider all openings/options.
