Do I? Where?
I wasn't meaning you literally write the words 'fair enough' but the lack of questioning the people who give reasons for 319s not remaining on Thameslink.
Posts 2 and 4 give reasons for 319s not remaining on Thameslink. Your first two posts in this thread (7 and 9) ask about whether the DOO statement is speculation and refer to anyone who thinks the 319s will be used in multiple in the North West is living in a dream world.
I think everyone knows the reason 319s are set to go to the North West is because Thameslink needs new trains to go forward and the 319s are not write offs. London Midland and Scotrail have both ordered a lot of new EMUs so that doesn't leave many existing electrified lines requiring a whole load of new EMUs and this does leave the North West with the short straw compared to other areas (except South West) who got brand new trains.
