Fleet cascading and exits 2008-16

[Daniel Hampson]

Guys I am interested in looking at the changing rolling stocock composition up until 2016. I have basic info regarding New stock (IEP, THameslink, Bombardier Turbo/eclectrostars; Hitachi Javelins; Siemens 380s and Alstom Pendelinos)

what I am interested is cascading stock as a result of this and which fleets maye just become redundant and leave service...

any ideas how I can find this out?

You might want a read of this document:

Appendix B will probably interest you the most.

I have new orders here

Was hoping to do cascades this weekend but as always time ran away with me. I know its not much help but I will post here when I get it done.

How desperate are you for the info?

Unless there is some severe downturn in passengers I can't really see a lot being dumped within that timescale - maybe some 14x or 313/314 if they become uneconomic to repair or used for spares in the rest of the fleet.

Its not comprehensive (missing Pacers, 180s, 222's, 323's and 460's)
but should be a decent start. There are a number of assumptions and many will be wrong.

I don't know what you want it for but if it is for published work, a note of thanks is nice.

I am doing an internship at Bombardier in marketing and since I had used this site for some research for school I also thouhght I could use it in my work. Thanks kads for this help
