I've also seen them all of a sudden on the Windsor ER
service. They're a great improvement over the 455s
that worked that route which -- with no toilets, bike
space or wheelchair room -- were worse than the
slam-doors which preceded them and may well be
the worst trains ever produced by human hand.
Very impressed with the Desiros indeed!

I really *do* hope the 17.38 (from Clapham Junction) on Monday has a new
train on. They've boringly changed the timetable to be far less
convenient for us - the least they can do is give us a comfortable
train!
