hi just wondering when fcc will get some new trains as the current
ones are dirty and broken when i go to sit down on one i have to push
the seat in first.

Could anyone tell me when fcc are getting new stock.

It depends which bit of FCC you are referring to. The Great Northern
stock is, in the main, mid-1990s Class 365 trains - quite suitable for the
job, in pretty good condition and a long way from requiring replacement.
The handful of Class 317s (from 1982) that remain are a different matter,
although the refurbishment exercise that has been undertaken on them
has improved the environment slightly.

You appear to have overlooked the 313's, which are not exactly in their
first flush of youth.
