Yes. I would.If I said that the flat cloth is the same price as other fabrics would you be surprised?

Yes I would be very surprised, especially when they look like this after a few months/weeks in service, and the older moquette did not show dirt/stains/general grubbiness to this extentIf I said that the flat cloth is the same price as other fabrics would you be surprised?
Can't remember the unit number, but here's a few shots of how the posh 'new' seats are holding up on Northern's finest 150s

I may be being dim, it is Monday morning after all, but how do you dry clean them? Do you have to take the seat cover off, clean it, then replace it?Not only is it the same price, flat cloth is dry clean only, and you don't want to see a train company's dry cleaning bill now!
I was surprised too when I found this out.

Indeed you do have to take it off, it gets sent away for cleaning, and meanwhile one from the spares kept in depot is inserted into the seat unit.I may be being dim, it is Monday morning after all, but how do you dry clean them? Do you have to take the seat cover off, clean it, then replace it?
Agreed. I can't remember the last time I bought anything fabric that wasn't machine washable.One assumes so. But designing it so it can't simply be washed in water and soap powder and tumble dried is beyond nuts. My IKEA sofa covers can.
Well, that seems unnecessarily complicated, expensive, time consuming, and altogether a rather silly way of doing things.Indeed you do have to take it off, it gets sent away for cleaning, and meanwhile one from the spares kept in depot is inserted into the seat unit.
You were expecting anything else from the railway?Well, that seems unnecessarily complicated, expensive, time consuming, and altogether a rather silly way of doing things
I mean, noYou were expecting anything else from the railway?

Most likely 2 or 3 car class 150s as...Does anyone know what units are going to be used on the Penistone line between Huddersfield and Sheffield once the 144's depart? I can't imagine the new 195's would be used on the route
170474 is going back to leeds from crewe
I mentioned this in post #4421.
With the return of 170474 today, would I be correct in saying there are now no 170s away at Crewe?
Another sprinter off to doncaster tomorrow;

Not including this weekends moves I estimate it Northern are still owed around 5 150/1: 5 156 ; 5 158 and 6 170 dmus

Thanks. Things seem to be moving on at last.Excluding the two 170s mentioned above, it's 5x 150s, 5x 156s, 6x 158s and 4x 170s.
