    Increasingly sad state of London Underground trains - graffiti and disrepair

    5 Central line trains in a row covered in both internal and external graffiti at Stratford this evening. Could have been more after but had to catch my train home. Been reading these comments, but didn’t realise it was this bad! So sad to see.

    Class 321 storage/scrapping

    Maybe I am being a bit pedantic, but shouldn't this chat be called 'Class 321/322 withdrawal updates' ? :p ;)

    Class 315 Withdrawals

    The wiki page adds up to 63... I thought there were only 61 units?

    Bakerloo line: an embarrassment to London?

    Will they transfer some of the Piccadilly line stock to the Bakerloo when the new trains arrive? Surely they are in a better state than the 72 stock?

    Class 707 - SWT: Introduction into service

    That would be a net reduction of 6 units for southeastern if that happens...

    Crossrail opening delayed (opening date not yet known)

    Just noticed an Elizabeth line roundel has been installed on the platforms at Chadwell Heath. Just a one off or are they likely to be installed everywhere in the next few months? With opening not until 2021 in the east , seems a bit premature....

    Northern Pacer Withdrawals - Info?

    They have 143's though? Aren't they basically the same as a 144?

    Northern Pacer Withdrawals - Info?

    How many are we expecting to see withdrawn by the end of the year? If the majority are taken out of service and there is a constant reduction on a weekly basis that continues into 2020, then I am sure the political impact of keeping then on will be lessened, as people will clearly be able to see...

    Great Northern 313 Withdrawals

    Are Southern likely to take the odd GN 313 for expansion, cover or spares? or can we safely say all 44 GN examples will be sent straight to scrap?

    Class 345 progress

    Is there any reason why they can’t be shortened to 7 cars like some have already and used to replace the remaining 315’s? Will provide a capacity boost straight away... as the 315’s are really not enjoyable in the rush hour

    Class 314 Withdrawals

    How long are we expecting the handful of 314's to remain? Are they here until the December timetable change or until all the 385's are in service?
