In contrast to the “least compatible rolling stock” thread, which services would you say are run with rolling stock which is most compatible with the route. Could be for any of the following reasons:
- Ideal speed for a long-distance intercity service
- Ideal acceleration for a short-hop commuter route
- Door widths and spacing suitable for type of operation
- Ideal train length to match passenger demand
- Ideal train length as to avoid eating up track capacity
- Seats most suited for journey type
- Appropriate power type - always electric under wires and diesel only where other power is not viable.
- Stock cannot be used elsewhere
