Good to see you visited my local station, Seaforth and Litherland, it's a dump isn't it Dave lol. Seriously it's hard to believe the 507s will soon all be gone. I saw them come in & replace the venerable class 502s. And I will see them go out. Despite my initial dislike when they replaced the 502s I grew up with. I have to admit they have served merseyside well, & I will miss them.
Yeah, it is a shame to see the old stock getting replaced, but also exciting to see how long the new stock will last. I bet the 777s and other recently introduced new build stock won't get close to 40 years of service. That said, they appear to be settling down now as the service seemed to be very reliable on Wednesday, even with gap for the training runs. It seems as though however, that audio quality of the PA System is a bit inconsistent between units at the moment. On one train, both automatic and manual radio mic announcements were loud and clear whilst on the other, the automatic ones would be a bit too quiet and the manual radio mic ones sounded very garbled and bearly intelligible.
@@davestransportvideos I have found that too. I assume there is a way to adjust the volume. Pointless having announcements it passengers can't hear them
