You suspect. So you’re guessing.I suspect that HT get money back from Angel Trains, the owners, when the units aren't available. It would be Angel that need to put the pressure on Alsthom. Trouble is, getting reduced lease rates doesn't run a train service.
If I was Angel I would have returned them years ago as unfit for purpose, in the same way as the Fyra units were.
