Please use this thread to update any speculative development in alternative traction arrangements due to the recent grounding of the 80x fleet. Once confirmed, please use this thread in the Fares Advice & Policy forum.
Note that existing posts will not be moved from the original thread due to excessive workload however new updates in the existing thread will be deleted.
Just to clarify following some feedback from members, this thread is not intended for any "my idea for what can/should run instead" type of discussion, but for any current rumours on what may be running and for speculation on any possible moves planned but not in the public domain, queries on if a move is possibly related to this incident, and any related technical discussion as to why a specific type of traction can/cannot run, that sort of discussion. There will inevitably be some overlap with existing threads but we will closely monitor the progress. As usual, feel free to flag anything problematic up via the post report mechanism.
