I'm going to rephrase my comment as it seems a bit unfair to say the depot team, who I assume work hard. My point is that DB have starved the maintenance of suitable finance for the age of the stock, something they knew about when they signed up.
All of the issues I described are maintenance issues aggravated with age. We can't complain as the Picidilly line is in a similar position to us and has less spare stock, yet they run a good service for the most part due to good management of maintenance regimes.
I thought all units have had the fix fitted to them? All of the units I have been on have got a little tick and a plastic tie on the handle which I thought meant they had been modified.
With the coming of thage NE Mayor, we may not see the Metro in the private hands again, thankfully.
