153s are too small for 99.9% of peak trains and as far as I‘m aware 142s are too small for every peak train they are used on by Northern Rail. (By too small I mean the number of passengers standing is above 30% of the seating capacity for part of the journey, which is what’s stated in Passenger Charters.)
Although I’ve noticed Arriva Trains Wales have some 153s, maybe in rural Wales 153s are still suitable for some routes? Can 153s be joined up to make a two carriage train that’s got an interior link between the carriages, or would that just make a 156?
