So it looks like my trip on it on Friday just gone will be my last?

Any idea what this is above the doors of one of the ex northern units. Never seen one before? 1658508815 Not sure if the photo is attaching properly but it looks to be a yellow button above each set of doors separate from the emergency door release mechanism

So does that mean the new fleet won't fully be in place before April 2023 or more likely they have realised that they still need the Renatus units to make up a shortfall due to demand?

Travelled back on one of the Renatus units tonight. It's a shame the whole fleet wasn't upgraded. Yes I know they had their issues when they first went into service but they seem much more reliable now. I guess Greater Anglia has a franchise agreement to replace the entire fleet but hopefully we...

Travelled back on one of the Northern Bins this evening. A big contrast to the 1656534778 720s. In terms of noise when all the windows are open 1656535006 But no sign of them disappearing yet

Interesting thanks. I always thought that was the plan but I had heard wispers that the order had been changed but this is obviously not the case. Do we know when the delivery of the 720s is likely to be complete by?

When are they expecting to have all the 720s in service? I am guessing the plan is still for all the Renatus units to be stood down presuming they have ordered enough 720s to cope.

Having been on one this evening where the lighting failed completely mid journey and it gave up the ghost completely at chelmsford i think they still have a long way to go to improve the reliability.
