That'll be another violation, unless they've been upgrading the 29K fleet behind our backs.

Jamie2k9 · 24-12-2010, 18:05

Maybe the they have relaxed restrictions for use on the in NI because of the current weather and high volumes of passengers traveling.

All I can say is that the 29K are putting the 22000 class to shame from the problems I was told over the last few days.

Colm Moore · 25-12-2010, 09:55

Of course, aren't there some 22000s with the correct signalling equipment?

Jamie2k9 · 25-12-2010, 14:14

Ya there is. I think that there is 6 3car sets fitted with TPWS and AWS for use on NI line.

People have being saying they have being using 29K in NI.
