1A88, 1C90 and 1A90 all lost engines yesterday due to being struck by waves on the sea wall. Looks like new GW▸ fleet may also be susceptible to the vagaries of the Dawlish weather.
So have the 802s been tested in equally harsh conditions? It’s shocking that the 800s malfunctioned after some Dawlish seawater as it’s inevitable these sets will be called upon to run to Plymouth and Penzance
