the branch always used to be a unit breaker, some dmus could cope with way it banged them around, others couldn't...hopefully by giving the 230's a good hard test regime, to break em should sort out any issues..the branch needs her own fleet, it always worked better when the maintenance was done locally at BY...the ferrying of units to and from birmingham always feels to me like a waste of fuel, waste of train crews and pathing...it must be cheaper to have a local team long term to look after this ladies
As local users we all agree.
When I look at them I see a train, when I ride on it I then decide if it feels as if I am riding on a forty year old tube train or something decent, any comments made before, you or I have done that are, to be honest, worthless. Neither of us can say if they are good or not until we have the info to decide.
Agreed - few of us have ridden on a 230 yet.
