i've heard a lot about the class 67's and 73/9's being problematic , and it just makes me wonder if sometime it'd maybe be worth hiring in class 68's to do sleeper duties
maybe when the 68's on the fife circle line get replaced, this could be potential work for them.
I know the 67's are...
hey will class 385's be doing any Edinburgh glasgow queen street via cumbernauld services or will they be done by 365's?, i know scotrail plan on putting them onto the edb dunblane services too
had the idea of a Co-Co Version of a 68 Geared for 90 Mph or something to take over the 68's on intermodal/freight trains to release those 68's for other jobs / phase out any 37's 47's
Dunno why vossloh seemed unhappy to do it? :o
heya, i love the 158's on scotrails network!, but with new trains coming in for E-Dunblane and GLQ - Falkirk grahamston whats the future for these units?
I find them much nicer than 170's as they feel more spacious, and the drivers on them dont tend to have a nasty tendency to turn on the...
seeing as a few 170's will be available? I dunno if that plan is in motion
it'd be good PR for scotrail to try this out (and by god do they need the good PR)
Hey a slight idea for these?
could these be used on the Fife circle line if scotrail replace their MK2's with redundant MK3's? so maybe like, Artemis - 5 MK3's - 68 or 73/9
if 365's are really nice trains, i dont see why we couldn't keep them for a bit longer. would do a lovely job for stirling and E-G Via Cumbernauld/grahamston line :D
as a regular traveler on the E-G i'll try keep you guys posted up when they are in service >:3
i know off topic, but i imagine...
i imagine the E-G will be a mixed line with 3 different units then? :D until total phasing in
i wonder if the 365's could do a E-G via grahamston until completely phased out.

danke dank
i imagine the 170's will be reduced to 3 car to allow units to be cascaded? or stored, also will the current 380's possibly run 3 or 6 car for more service coverage? paticuarly on less demanding service
so oncce the 365's are introduced, will they run alongside the 380's before 385's eventually lodge both of them out of the way or will they be replacing the 380's?
