    This is from March (there's a more recent one from today on #CrossCountryTrains apalling service).
    My question: why buy more diesel units when a lot of the routes are electrified.
    With dual power you could go electric Manchester-Birmingham, then diesel to the West country. They do this in continental Europe.
    No doubt the reason is cost/profitability and stock availability.
