DR As a fare paying customer you every right to be annoyed at the poor service. The Marston Vale line does appear to be a test track for the 230`s. A number of the problems you mention can be sorted, some, like the heat on hot days won`t without withdrawal and modification. I hope you will be able to visit the Wrexham - Bidston line when the Tfw 230`s are running to give us a critical analysis of how the units compare.
Above the solebar I'm a great fan, personally, but it does seem the mechanical side is rather less of a success. I do hope a solution is found.
