My CrossCountry Idea V2

[D365]

I cannot see there being the paths for any of these services and this would need the class 221 units being moved from Avanti West Coast to Cross Country as you would not be able to run these services with existing stock. Plus you would also need the new staff to be trained on the incoming class 221 units. For Service 1 to be a fast service I would miss out both Farnborough and Dorking as station stops. But if there was capacity still retain the GWR fast services, but as semi - fast services.

Well, Avanti has already begun off-leasing the Voyagers... so I'd say rolling stock availability is the least of the problems.
