The review also discusses fleet enhancement to cope with expect growth in numbers:
  • Refurbishing the 2700s at 300,000 each to be on-line in 2018/19 and releasing
    ICRs from the PPT route
  • And buying an additional 41 ICR 'B' (intermediate) cars (perhaps to convert 4-car to 5-car?); this would be subject to procurement allowing use of the existing framework agreement.
  • OR acquiring the equivalent in a new procurement (more expensive and a lot longer due to full tendering equirements)
