Real Learning - BR Class 350 Desiro [Operations Training]

OK, so not the normal Simulation created video, but an actual operations training video from 2005 of the BR Class 350 whilst being introduced into operation with Silverlink.
The British Rail Class 350 Desiro is a class of electric multiple-unit passenger train built by Siemens in 2004-05, 2008-09 and 2013-14. Thirty of these trains, designated Class 350/1, were built for use by Central Trains and Silverlink on regional express services and services on the southern section of the West Coast Main Line. A further 37 Class 350/2 units were ordered by then operator London Midland in late 2007. All 37 units were delivered and in service by July 2009. A further 20 units have since been built, split equally between London Midland/LNR and TransPennine Express. The London Northwestern units are designated under the Class 350/3 subfleet, and the TransPennine Express units designated 350/4.

    @@oliverstemp9132 the reason LNWR are getting rid of the /2s is because in the lease agreement they had a certain amount of millage allowed attached to the agreement, and London midland/LNWR have massively exceeded it and are being charged extortionate amounts of money from the leasing company so they want to hand them back to avoid all this, much like when you finance a car and you tell the finance company how many miles a year you plan to do, if you exceed this there is a charge like 8p per mile over the agreed amount you do, only on the railway it’s probably a whole lot more
