So if Pacers are out by 2019 (I know its not 100%), surely we need something like them, but better, as a replacement?
It would have bogies, 2/3 carriages, proper doors, DDA compliancy. (Maybe a toilet for the longer journeys it might end up on?)
How about the bus design again? Along the lines of an Enviro bus, having proper fronts/cabs (with air con for the drivers of course).
Normal bogie under the each cab, and a Jacobs bogie between the carriages (either 1 between 2 or 2 between 3) with better suspension than Pacers.
If three carriages, the middle would contain a toilet.
Good or bad idea? Surely would be cheaper (like Pacers) than new design DMUs?
