The East Anglia Rail franchise
I moved from Harold Wood Essex to Edinburgh some 3.05 years ago. The ONE railway as it was called then were going to get some new rolling stock for the trains shenfield to L Pool st and Southend to L Pool St. Silly question but did this ever happen?

Still the same units 315 - Shenfield, 321 - Southend with 360s to Clacton, Ipswich. The 315 is still in my opinion an ideal unit even though 30 years. A similar unit the 313 is now being replaced on London Overground (North London Line) by the 378 units. Possibly the worst designed modern unit. It seems the planners are happy to fit a few seats for some, a couple of perches for a few potential hunchbacks and the majority can stand even in the off peak!
