I've been trying to find out what's planned for the 365s, to no avail
though.


Unlike FCC/TL 319s that are all deployed on current TL services that
remain TL services therefor get replaced by new stock, many FCC/GN
units (the majority in fact if you count 313s in the fleet totals) do
not work services that are intended to run over TL. There is no reason
to suppose 365s will be cascaded anywhere at this moment in time and
we probably won't know until the x-IEP EMU is known and confirmed for
the KL line.


If IEPs are bought for Kings Lynn services, there will be surplus units.
The 317s will presumably be first to go, however.
