Personally I can’t fault the 350 ride quality, 185’s are slightly rougher but as it’s been mentioned in the thread a lot, depends on the track quality. Thankfully WCML north of Preston is like butter on the 350’s, would say you get thrown about far more on a pendolino.
Anyone have an eta for the first set to arrive in the UK? If we’re going off a similar timescale for the mk5’s (very different trains I know) how much longer should it be now in the gap from the first set heading to velim to the first set arriving in the UK, IIRC with the mk5 it was about 2 months?
Any timescale on when we could see, dare I say, a livery? Would seem logical and good PR for TPE to line up their new trains in the livery, once the 397’s are in the country that is. Mk5 sets are coming with it on and with the 802 being at Doncaster currently, why wouldn’t they?
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
