Forums Forums Thread Like Summary - New trains

When are we going to see these new trains on the Wirral lines?

I did spot one parked at Rock Ferry a wee ago, and a large sign recently appeared at Bebington saying they are coming soon, but they have been allegedly appearing 'soon' for literally years now, and so far nothing has appeared

Has Merseyrail any dated plan for their deployment, or are they sitting rusting in a siding whilst Merseyrail fart hopelessly about?

It wasn't the unions trying to get rid of the train guards, it was the management. We have been waiting for management to face up to facts, not the unions.

The idea of having 300 members of the public in four compartments supervised by one person in a dangerous environment is ludicrous. If that was an employer with 300 workers and one supervisor underground that would be rated as grossly understaffed and an obvious breach of health and safety. Even above ground it is highly questionable, there is no backup with only one person in charge, drivers have collapsed in the past.
