I've been pondering which TOC has the longest (number of carriages) shortest (shortest formation they operate) train.
For example, TPE's longest shortest train would be a 185 at 3 carriages, whereas LNER's would be a 5 car Azuma.
Is there any operator whose shortest train is longer than 5 cars?
Equally, which TOCs operate the shortest longest train? As in, ranking TOCs by their longest train operated.
For example, London Overground operate maximum 5 car services, but Northern operate maximum 6 car services.
I believe its only TfW left who operate single 153s on their own so that question is easily put to bed!
