Why
Why don’t they replace them all with 374’s then or do they not want to order more? Shame they won’t store the old carriages in a rail museum I have never actually been on an original one only seen it from the outside.

I thought I'd attempt to wake this thread up again by sharing this major news...
It also seems the 374s can operate on any 373 diagram now as they are running the ski route to Bourg St Maurice and have seemingly replaced them on this service now. And from recent observations it seems all the unrefurbished sets are fully withdrawn (as of Jan 2020), though I'm unsure if they are stored at Temple Mills, Le Landy or Vorst depots... or if they are awaiting scrapping.
