Class 345

[jbg]

I've heard that the new crossrail class 345 units will start passenger service in the next few weeks.

All the youtube clips I've seen so far have them running with no yellow warning panels.

Is this to be the norm for them in service?

I realise that the warning panels are no longer a legal requirement, but in my opinion they do look odd without them.

Yep. They will run with Black front ends. I think the new LO stock will have an orange front too.

So like the Sheffield Tram-Trains then.

Yes. I'd imagine it will become more and more common not to have a yellow front on newer trains. (Providing the Headlights are up the required standard).
