It’s kinda lucky for me I used to go on it every weekend to Birmingham from redditch but I recently move to Leeds which still have some in Manchester and they’re giving them to northern so that’s lucky lol still bit pissed off at the fact their replacing them
17 of them are being cascaded to Northern whilst 9 of them are either going into storage or will remain with WMR as I don't think scrapping them is actually a good idea although they're almost 30 years old now.
Word, his content is usually real good. Detailed rides with a description of the passed/arrived at stations etc, always rides in the motor coach with a detailed audio so you can hear each units unique traction etc. And his "trains at" vids are always quality. No complaints from me
Just subscribed. Nice to see a vid that takes in the whole route, looking forward to this one in TS20xx hope they do the 323 to go with it and do the sounds justice.
The West Midlands Railway Class 323 are to be cascaded to Northern with some to be sent for storage. As West Midlands Trains are replacing the Class 323, Class 319 and Class 350/2 with the Class 730 Aventra. And they are also replacing the Class 170 Turbostar with the Class 196 Civity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_323 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_730 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_196
