Good evening,
I was on Wikipedia last night doing some research for my rail database and I noticed something about an order for 200 Class 172 carriages to be delivered to Northern Rail, TransPennine Express and First Great Western. Out of interest, I was wondering if anybody knows how many units were expected to be built for their respective recipients before they were cancelled in favour of electrification?
I'd also be interested in knowing where the proposed new 172s for Northern would have operated if they weren't cancelled, if anyone knows of course!
Regards to all.
