Nice pics
This morning my train was an S set and it was awesome ride.
On another note, is it possible to split up all C Sets into 4 car workings and use them on Cumberland and polympic park lines with k sets or tangaras replacing them thus having all trains air-conditioned or is there not enough sets.

There's enough C sets to run Cumberland, Carlingford and Olympic Park services.BAMBAM wrote:Nice pics

You'd still need some spare sets in a train breaks down.

Which logically should be placed on those services as a cancellation there affects next to nobody, and no real harm done!Bjwh86 wrote:

There are plenty of S sets sitting in the scrappers holding yard at Enfield to replace anything that breaks down. About 60 cars as a rough estimate to how many are there.

They are not for scrapping.They are the hot storage cars that can be reactivated at several days notice for use.Nothing further scheduled to go to scrap for quite a while.
