Hi all, I hope you're ok. Thought I'd start a thread on what we could have instead of the 769's.
On Twitter, somebody said something about GWR ordering 32 new trains.
My guess is, if true, 15 will be for the '769' routes plus a few for the Didcot - Oxford - Banbury's as well as one of the branch lines.
Alternatively, my suggestion would be some 158's from TfW (someone suggested it to on here) to make 5-car formations on Portsmouth routes and then send Turbos to increase capacity in the Thames Valley and Gatwick routes.
