Again, this returns to the fact GA did not anticipate inevtibale delays of new stock, if they did, class 170 leases would’ve been extended and they would be working busy morning peak services instead of going off to Wales too soon. A complete mess. Then they protect themselves with deceptive PR to excuse their lack of planning. When honestly isn’t in the company culture things go south very fast.7.15am from Newmarket to Cambridge had to turn large numbers of passengers away this morning who were unable to board what I can only describe as the most filthy class 153 I have ever seen.
Apparently a bus was supposed to be sent.
What I fear next is the 360s going. There aren’t enough extra 321s to cover, so I expect 317s will fill in and we’ll have short forms. This is only the beginning.
