Class 350/2s to replace 323s on Northern

Hopefully they'll be used at Wigan on some services.

It's roughly the same as the current 185 fleet that have no issues on that exact line

I was think more in 2034 when there should be four express and two semi fasts per hour Staylbridge - Leeds, at that point the stoppers need to be rapid on station stops and acceleration which the 350's may not achieve.

I’m hoping that some may find their way on to the East side to be used on a Huddersfield-York service and possibly the Doncaster line to release 333’s to allow more 6-car 331 workings on ‘the Triangle.’ I might be being a little over-optimistic here however.

In the media release Northern says that the 350/2s will replace the 323s, so none of the 350/2s are going to the North East.

I don't even think there are enough 350/2s to replace the 323s and do what you are hoping for.
