[edit] Facts

Please check your facts before posting on this article. I had to fix a few things this morning.

There were always 40 Junipers.

I've also tidied up the announcement system to reflect what she actually says. If you don't know, don't make it up.

Thanks.

> The announcement system is not able to display tailed letters on screen and instead uses capitals. [eg luGGaGe]

Who the hell is doctor flange?!

This is actually almost true. Due to the size, sentances like "We are now approaching Ayr" appear as "We are now aPProachin9 AYr". The PIS screens are not big enough to show the tailed letters properly. 82.40.75.55 12:01, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Announcements - does anyone know why some say "Please change here for Gartnavel Hospital", and some say "Please alight here for Gartnavel hospital"? Talking train woman firmware can't deal with the difference? User misconfiguration? Gordonjcp (talk) 08:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unreliability

In what way are the 334's so unreliable.



Mainly because they are new trains, they are unrelianle :-D

I believe there have been technical difficulties with the fleet.

Currently, I would state that the 334's are MORE common on the North Clyde line than the 320. Panthro 18:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

??? Not actually true, although they can appear to be more common during peak times. In fact, 320s can only operate on the North Clydes at the moment, so using more 334s would be a stupid idea. 77.97.28.34 (talk) 13:10, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
