Besides which, wasn't there the Mk4? Aren't they superior? I don't see why we'd go back to Mk3's.

It's not like we're going back to building Mk1's!

You say the toilets are blocked as if it's a fact, you don't provide a source for that statement, you just say it as if it's true. I've been on 3 Northern services today, the toilets have been fine...
