Thank you for the insight, found it very interesting.Been very handy at moving the crowds heading for Edinburgh Xmas markets thus far.
Don't get me wrong you will still get crowding on Anglo-Scots in December as it's the busiest time(there is a reason BR ran load 10 Class 85 hauled additionals) with Edinburgh trains particularly busy since the Xmas market concept took off.
With the cameras it's easier to move those who stand/ block a coach thinking the train is full by directing them to coaches with seats.
When the trains have run they have been well received by passengers.
Couple of issues with the heating flow in Coach B and D(a fix is planned with a temp solution in place)is the only issue that's raised with any consistently (too hot/cold)but regular passengers point out compared to the 350s it's a big improvement.
Early days and improvements still to be had but slow but promising start.
