Class 319

[class 313]

When first capital connect comes into play will the 319's get a refurb or just a new paint job? coz the 319 is in need of a lil referb.

Agreed the 319's are in DESPERATE need of a refurb some of the T/L ones running about are in poor condition. MY guess is when First take over a fleetwide overhaul will be planned which will include a repaint.

Customer environment

• Improvements to interior of the Thameslink 319 fleet;
• Significant improvements to the interior and exterior cleaning of trains; and
• Training and development for revenue protection staff to provide focus on improved service for all customers.

As you can see, this was taken from the First Capital Connect site (Had to say this because of the minimum post length thing which doesn't include quotes! :mad

Why do you say 319374 ?

I would imagine the 'first' First Capital Connect liveried 319 will be ready for 1st April.

I saw an uncaptioned picture of it in the latest Rail. I am not convinced that it is real.

Of course it wasnt, it was a Computer mock-up

There's this mock-up on the First Capital Connect website:

I posted that mockup a long time ago on the forums.
