Some of us remember the last time this happened in 1980, hence the user name
The 306s were way ahead of their time for 1949, but mechanically they were struggling by the end and had to be replaced. Since then the 315s have done a fine job, but time moves on.
If a train is all about moving people, then the 345s can't come quick enough. The growth generated by the Olympic legacy has been incredible to witness, and it hasn't stopped yet.
For the 315 fans, you've still got until May 2019 to travel on them, by which time some of the remaining fleet will be approaching their 40th birthday.
