Indeed, no doubt it will be given a high priority than the long suffering local lines. Some would argue it would be better they focus on providing a good service on existing routes before focusing on new ones, but who cares about long suffering passengers when there is good PR to chase.

What is going to operate on it?

If the seat pitch is like it is on the standard airline seats on the 755, it's worse than the MK3s, my knees literally feel claustrophobic with the left one resting on the left side of the niche and right one on the right side of the niche and knee front on the back of the niche. At the end of...

What's the situation with the Class 90s this morning? There's looks to be three diagrams out this morning? All these are cancelled: 07:00 London Liverpool Street to Norwich due 08:50 07:00 Norwich to London Liverpool Street due 08:55 07:30 Norwich to London Liverpool Street due 09:19

It's informative and useful in places, that's for sure. Would have been even better if they just stuck to writing the FAQ instead of trying to slip a dig that was clearly aimed at the EDP and a certain well known EADT journalist. They say the FLIRTS are not the problem, but then go on to talk...

So, Greater Anglia have basically decided to point the fingers at the local press and their critics with a little bite at them this evening on a statement on their website. Greater Anglia should focus on providing a good service and learning from issues that occur. That is the very best way...

There's another error on that panel of screens as well, the service to Kings Cross that has an apology for a delay on the service yet has an 'on time' flag set at the top of the same screen. Agree with a lot said in the post above. Also is there any real need for headings like Cancellation...

The most daming thing of the photo that illustrates the poor design ofL the layout of them and font sizes, is the fact that a big screen like that needs 4 pages to show a list of stops on a single service (22:51 to Liverpool Street) Tee Brightness issue is all over the network, in Norwich and...

There were restrictions on the the Stadlers? I thought the restrictions were caused by the signalling system and NOTHING to do with the new trains from what GA were saying. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Is that the same restrictions that we've been told for days that were related to signalling systems and nothing at all to do with the Stadlers? Need to have a look at GA's PR today, no doubt we'll be hearing things like the signalling system has been fixed, not the issues with the trains on...

Greater Anglia and Cancelled - two statements that when you think of one, you think of the other! Seriously though that screen is very confusing but a lot of the time they are. It's not exactly hard to spot errors with this screens without looking too hard. Every time I've been through Norwich...

Having sat on a 755 today in airline seats, which I hadn't done up until now, it becomes very clear why Greater Anglia have selected a high density seat with a big niche - because they are high density laid out. Literally in the seat I was in my left leg was hard up against the inner edges of...

This gem from Ipswich tonight on main board screens. Bad enough the sixth section along showing the same five trains as the previous 5 sections, let alone sections duplicating each other. The second train on the departures list didn't appear at all on the main board since 17:36 to Norwich was...

Just boarded the 17.03 service from Norwich. Had to direct people to the Norwich in 90 service since habitually the main board in Norwich is showing the 17.03 twice and the 1700 not at all. Manchester service listed twice too. Totally useless. With the screens basically being divided into to...

Good of Abellio to help out one of their franchises in time of need. Be funny if they came out and said those leaving were not under their control.

The problem isn't the disruption. The older screens can handle it fine. It's something related te the newer ones. The old ones in Ipswich this morning for example showed correct info when new didn't. They should stop the roll out of new ones till they fix the bugs. Best leave old ones until then.

MK3 set I was on this morning was missing a standard class carriage with another locked out of use and in the dark all lights went out and power went off couple of times for few seconds. Cold too. Also about twenty minutes ago saw a Stansted Flirt with Bishops Stortford on front.

Screens in Ipswich departure hall are pathetic. Just been past them with one train flicking from cancelled to on time and back constantly and three of the five boards showing the same train and the next train out not even showing. The roll out of these should be halted.

If you have connecting rural trains then that is indeed a problem. The line that I've used Tuesday and will on Friday is to Lowestoft. From Ipswich the earliest journey planner result to get to Lowestoft in the morning involves a considerable wait and change at Saxmundham (with the connecting...

It's noticeable in Ipswich where there are a mixture of old screens and new ones, that the old ones are more accurate, more informative and tend to not be lagged and show more relevant information and less distractions and irrelevant stuff. I note today they've errected two right outside the...
