    Southeastern removing Networkers from some routes

    I have noticed that 375's and 377's have been replacing networkers on some routes. Such as: London Victoria - Ashford Int London Victoria - Canterbury West and no more Networkers from London Victoria - Gillingham I think these are great changes as Networkers were horrible for long journeys...

    London Overground: Why doesn't franchising affect Tfl Overground?

    Sorry, my bad. For everyone wondering, I used the word 'corrupt' in the wrong way. I apologise about this.

    London Overground: Why doesn't franchising affect Tfl Overground?

    Yes, I am just very confused as franchising doesn't effect TfL and I think it is a bit unfair.

    Class 377: On Southern Metro

    I have seen quite a few 377's on southern metro lines.I am curious to why they have started popping up. I prefer them to the class 455s. Will southern try to put more 377's on the metro services?

    Usage of Networkers

    Sorry, it's about southeastern networkers.

    Usage of Networkers

    Yes, I think they do however they still need to improve a lot of things, southeastern are doing stuff in the cheap and it isn't fair for customers.

    Usage of Networkers

    I feel like no train operating company is doing something about the networkers. They want to remove them however you can do a lot with them. I don't think the networkers should be taken out of service yet, they are still good trains belongs they do works to them. There is no need spending a lot...

    Favourite train used on Southeastern

    That's really good and I hope they do the same with the Victoria - Ramsgate and Dover Priory Line. Quite a few trains stop at all the village stations which isn't needed. It should just go from Rochester straight to Bromley South and atleast run 1 train an hour from the Village Towns.

    Do you think Thameslink has failed? And what can be done to fix it

    Really, they should just make it be owned by the government, therefore situations will be soughted.

    Favourite Electrostar

    What is also worring is that the new franchise of southeastern might decide to remove the newtowrkers and the electrostars. I don't think they will as new trains will cost too much and electrostars are modern and fast. I think the electrostars are a good choice for the Chatham main line. The...

    Favourite Electrostar

    Agreed, I really hate the 2+3 seating. The should just remove it for more space.

    Favourite Electrostar

    Please vote for your favourite electrostar and why. Mine is the Class 375's. The reason I don't like the 377 as some of them have 2+2 and then 2+3 in the middle. However 375's have 2+2 or 3+2. Personally I think all trains should remove 3+2 and have 2+2 for more space.

    Do you think Thameslink has failed? And what can be done to fix it

    The reason Thames link has failed is because it is owned by Govia, they are not a great train operating company. They should've gave the franchise to someone else, even FCC was better then them. Southeastern would've been a great choice really.

    Favourite train used on Southeastern

    I have noticed that southeasterns franchise is running out and I would like to know if it's going to public hands or another private person, I think southeastern should keep the franchise because they are actulty a good train operator. Class 375's Does anyone recon that Class 375's might be...
