there are two ways foward without a new build at the moment
there 80 mk 3 s in store on Irish railways need to re gague the bogies. I am sure they could find a way of chopping 7" off the width of the bogies, they even have sliding plug doors
also there are a load of ex buffet cars in store cut a few extra windows in them, new seats and bingo. I read you cannot cut holes in mk3 s cos of the way they are made. but i read that chiltern are thinking of putting windows in D V T s ,,I wish great eastern would do the same it is a waste to have an empty D V T taking up as much space as a coach on limited length crowded thains on the Norwich run
