Class 345 progress

[TT-ONR-NRN]

So exactly how many services per weekday in each direction are 345s now?
Do they run on weekends?
Which exact units are in service?

Thanks!

Do you think they are likely to have changed since someone put up this weeks details in post #1099?

Of course, in Summer 2018 it's probably going to see little use given I'd be foregoing an air-conditioned 345 for a stuffy 321, but from that point forwards, it does open my options up, never mind all the journeys the direct interchange at Farringdon simplifies.

Well in Summer 2019, you could be using an air-conditioned Class 720 instead of a 321 and by summer 2020, you definitely would be able to as the 321's will be gone.

I know it'll be such a crying shame to see the 321's go:cry:

Why would it be 'a crying shame' to see the 321s go?

What services are booked or likely to be 345 operated Tuesday 25th July, am doing trip to London and be looking to try them out if reasonably possible.

 

[jaig]

Is there an extra 345 journey to Gidea Park after it returns to LST? (2Z06)

Correct

Where is 345002?

I've read its either at Old Oak Common or North Pole, does anybody know?

 

[physics34]

On 005 now. Nice interior but ride quality average like the 387s and once again hardish seats ??????

 

[dp21]

For anyone interested, and I apologise if this is old news, but I saw 345006 on test today at Stratford.

 

[Starmill]

Appears they're cancelled today The one day I would have been able to do them!!

The train seemed to enter service with a "not to be moved" board attached as seen here (not my pic)

Hmm, the 345 doesn't look as good as the promo pictures. And they've already planned cascading them Oop Norf?

I think the photo MCR provided was just intended as an example. It's actually a cl.153. (153316 to be exact)

I'm sure I saw one of these in the sidings south of Crewe yesterday evening. No idea what it was doing that far north.

Yeah, I saw it this morning. Going back soon to hopefully get the number.

 

[Domh245]

I believe that that is 345001, which has been there for a while.

Yeah it is 345001 - passed it the other day on the way up to Liverpool and took me by surprise to see it.

That's the joke.

I'm guessing you don't do a lot of commuting?! Either that or you're about 3 foot tall.
