Description
Filmed at many locations around the Merseyrail network on the 11th October, this coming Saturday 23rd October a class 777 will be on display at Southport Station for the general pubic to see inside one, this was also done at Birkenhead North on the 04/09/21.
I think the new class 777 have been designed brilliantly inside, but the two cab ends look ugly.
So they have been given the green light to be used on passenger service so I wonder when that will happen.
They have 52 on order and I believe 14 have been delivered, so the good old 507s and 508s will be around the Merseyrail network well into 2022.
