I do hope the TfL order follows sharpish as I want new trains on the
GOBLIN as it's my local (Overground) line and (almost) anything must be
better than clapped out 150s.


Ey up! Ken? Ken?!? I think we've found a home for those yellow 142s!


I rather carefully inserted the word "almost" in brackets in
anticipation of exactly this response. No we do not want those bloody
horrible things bouncing and grinding their way over track that is
riddled with speed restrictions because bridges and embankments are worn
out (even after a lot of upgrade work by NR on other stretches).
