What's the reason for the l/h services? Assuming it's just "xmas demand?"

replacement for 158 refurbs

.....and it looks good to the paying customer (less overcrowding, longer trains, etc)

Post on SWRG today suggests that NR may have put the stoppers on these workings. FFS

NR Clause 33.1.1.2 - states that at any point a decent fare paying traveller must NOT enjoy the comfort or spacious ambiance or enjoy the journey AT ANY TIME.

Didnt they do the same with the Weymouth Summer Extras? IIRC it was a Method Statement or something that wasn't quite tickety boo.

And there I was looking forward to a bit of variety walking into work of a morning.

I'm assuming that these never happened?

correct, they got shelved by NR

NR means Not Running.

Or, to every solution they will find a problem. Typical of today's can't do mentality.
