    Abellio Greater Anglia Class 755s (Regional Trains)

    Looking at the posts in the village facebook group most were asking if the train was faulty and how to let GA know. If this was a new set of trains then you are correct it's just a new noise. However this is a 755/3 that's been running in service for months that suddenly sounds very different...

    Yes the local village facebook group took off, ironically as I read your reply 2S09 came past sounding like a turbo fan aircraft, seems to just be 755/3

    There is a 755/3 working the bittern line than makes an awful sounds from the fans, higher pitched and a good 10x louder than any other unit. I know it's been reported to GA.

    Have the 755's been cleared to run in multiples, the first train from cromer today did not have an STP scheduled empty coaching stock service ahead of it to pre position. Are we finally splitting ?

    Same pots they have on the trolley now paired with smaller cups and micro packs of biscuits in first. Soon you will bring coffee and food to feed the train crew!

    When GA have a habitual use of spin and blame it's hard to take any excuse seriously. What next more trains than usual requiring repairs despite the fact there are 8 more of them sat in sidings waiting to enter service? Looking like all being service before end of march is wishful thinking and...

    I think most folks just want what they pay for a seat in the class of booking within +/- 5 mins of schedule. Its the same with airlines and other transport services. In December I drove to london each week which I thought would be terrible but turns out it was reliable, comfortable and cheaper...

    Not exactly beggars more like paying customers, but most would prefer a service than none at all. The weeks of no service made me almost wish for a dogbox to show up!

    Looks like the end if march date is at risk again, unless we start seeing 2 rakes coming on each week. Not sure why I am surprised that GA cant hit a date, or are over optimistic.

    745007 to london, impressed is the best description, a massive improvement on the Mk3's just need these in service fast. Stadler tech riding on board in first the whole way so clearly being closely watched. Only issue I can see is luggage space, folks not using the racks and bags in the aisle...

    Class 745 Stadler FLIRTs

    Any news on a second set entering service? and which diagram(s) are operating as 745's this week? If there is a way for me to find out on diagrams I would love to know (not too lazy to look myself). WT
