Yet Mr Shooter claimed they could match 75mph timings on stopping services despite only having a 60mph top speed as Shooter claimed they are quicker off the mark.

They will be a common sight at Rugeley Town soon. There is even a LIV-BHM-RGL service at 0636 in the new timetable.

I had a trip on Wednesday - the half minute station times seemed unattainable.

At the moment, the BHM-RGL service is booked as class 170. From 19th May, the class 350 will take over from the class 170. I would imagine that the class 170 will be transferred onto the BHM-SHR service.
