British Rail Class 315 - Plans

Plans

Class 315s are rumoured to be replaced after the London Olympic Games at Stratford in 2012, as by then they will nearly be life expired (around 2014).

It has been announced recently that a number of the class 315's are to be refurbished with new interiors which will allow them to meet new DDA regulation due to come into effect in 2020.

There seems to be a good future for a number of the class 315's once they have been withdrawn from service in East Anglia and that is because a proposal is that some the class 315's will be used to work services on the Cardiff Valley Lines network once electrification work is completed by 2019.

Famous quotes containing the word plans:

    Make your plans for the year in the spring, and your plans for the day early in the morning.
    Chinese proverb.

    Consider any individual at any period of his life, and you will always find him preoccupied with fresh plans to increase his comfort. Do not talk to him about the interests and rights of the human race; that little private business of his for the moment absorbs all his thoughts, and he hopes that public disturbances can be put off to some other time.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
    with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
    that follow’d,
    And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
    still I was not happy,
    But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
    refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
