    Aren't the turbostars slow at acceleration as they enter final drive at 70? Maybe the journey times will be quicker with the 196s enter service. What is the speed limit between wolvo and Shrewsbury?

    New northern DMU’s due in 2022 as of yet unclassified.

    If chiltern need DMUs then, isn’t there also class 222s/221s/180s floating about at the same sort of time? Most likely cross country would snap up the 221s and some 222s giving chiltern potentially some 222s and 180s?
