      @@benolifts I reckon it would've been interesting if the Siemens designed VF drives that changed their output frequency as they set off in a way that made them play a tune, and each 717 with their own unique tune.

      I liked the sound of the compressors on the Class 315s, that made the quannee- quannee noise. Probably one of the last types of trains to have this type of compressor, as they were mostly found on slam door types. I see here that the older units make a boring compressor noise like those on Class 321s.

    There is 56 differences between the car 700 and the class 717 trains name a few of the differences this one of the differences is the 717 has got a door the front of the train from emergency evacuation and it has a completely different cab layout to the 700

    Pity that the only thing that is no new about this line are the trains themselves. The stations still feel like they've been left behind somewhat from the here and now......forever existing in the late 1980's.
    The stations feel cramped and claustrophobic - especially Essex Road and Old Street. Locked in a past era.

      @@dogmannz Nobody goes on the tracks in the UK. It isn't like Cheque republic where people cross the tracks wherever. The entire length of the railway is protected by high fences. Randomly crossing the tracks isn't a thing here. The BTP are a police state. They go to the ultimate lengths to punish anyone who walks on a train track. They go to the efforts and have the resources that the regular police could only use on a murder case.

    The class 717 is the most crap train in London. The whole design is extremely dull, and the seats are hard and uncomfortable. I prefer the awesome old 313s over this. The only awesome thing about this train is the motor. It is sad that trains in the UK are getting more dull and this was allowed to operate.
