CLASS 334
|
This fleet is one of the 'Juniper' range offered from Alstom, the fleet
are currently being delivered to ScotRail for service on the Ayrshire
coast routes thus displacing other units to withdraw the Class 303s. Serious
problems have surrounded the entry into service of this fleet, which at
the end of 2001 were still far from operating at the desired performance
level. |
