Greater Anglia Bombardier Aventras (Class 720): Technical discussion and introduction

[wickham]

Surely if a 720 has both toilets out of use it should not be in service unless it's coupled to another 720?

This does not solve the problem in itself as there is no corridor connection between 720 units.

They don't but it does give passengers the option of hopping off one unit and going to use the toilets in the other at the next station. I've had to do that a number of times when traveling on the Class 360 Desiros back in the day.
