[edit] Speed

Can we have a reference for the speed? - I can't find one but I head that it's 75mph and not 100. 82.36.81.159 19:40, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Presumably htey will be the same as the normal 170's (ie 100mph), otherwise i could mean they will have diffrent gearing ??? Pickle 17:12, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 8 or 9?

Do we know the reason for the 9th London Overground unit? Are they giving the GOBLIN an extra unit or do they have some other use planned for it? At the moment the article seems to contradict itself. --DanielRigal (talk) 17:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

There is only going to be 8 London Overground units according to Bombardier. Unisouth (talk) 10:11, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
