Forgive my ignorance, but i thought they were getting rid of the Adelante fleet? Or are they using them until the HSTs▸ are completely finished? (even though i read they'd be out of use by december of last year!) It just seems strange that it's not just 1 or 2 services running short formed its 5 or 6 at the very least. What will they do if and when they are sent back? They can't exactly send a Turbo on a Service to Cheltenham surely (this is onve i've noticed is regularly "short formed") Surely there aren't that many HSTs left to Refurb?

They are now apparently keeping 3 Adelantes for Cotswold line workings.

Whats the justification for keeping them though? Surely they planned to have sufficient HSTs▸ for any 180s not to be required?

Perhaps to allow quicker journey times/allow more HSTs▸ to be under maintenance as they aren't running up and down the Cotswolds empty!

Why is the First Class (on 180s):
a- nowhere near the buffet, for the customer host;
b- in the middle of the train?

Hi all... Me and a couple of friends have decided to go on a bit of a tour of the FGW▸ network this coming Thursday (28th Feb) and use up our priv boxes . I've said I want to go on a Adelante just because i've never been on one before and want to. From reading this site, it seems as though its quite hard to pin point exactly what services will be formed of 180s. Has anyone got any rough ideas of what they might be working this Thurs? the 0748 from PAD» to Cheltnham Spa seems to run as '5 cars'... Is that a common service for a 180 to run? Thanks |
