and the same CIS system as used on the Class 700s.
PIS! CIS is at stations. The manufacturer for the 700s, 707s and 717s PIS is Televic Rail, who also supplied the PIS for quite a few other British trains.

That's my thread, and it's speculative. At the moment, Southeastern are not known to have any orders for brand new stock.

Indeed, all I did was take the best parts from all three of the Desiro City Class and used it to create what I think would be a decent unit fit for both Metro and Outer Suburban work - note the Class that I used doesn't actually exist so I've complied with the guidelines provided by the OP of this thread especially as they said nothing about not using existing designs to provide a brand new one.
