    Today I am suggesting the Class 378 EMU for TSW 4.
    The Class 378 is a dual voltage train that has been used on the London Overground network since 2008 and was used on the GOBLIN line after the electrification of the line. Although they are no longer used on the line, I think it would be nice to have a bit of variety between the trains you can drive on the route.

    Route Used On
    • LO Suffragette Line: Gospel Oak - Barking Riverside
    The Unit
    The unit is used mostly in a 4 Car formation but some routes also use 5 car units at peak times.

    The class 378 'Aventra' Livery was introduced so that the class 378s would 'blend in' with the new liveries that the class 710s would wear when they began operation.

    And that brings us to the end of my suggestion. Thanks for reading :)

    Great suggestion :)but correct me if I'm wrong the 378 was only used as a four car train to help with damands that the 172 couldn't keep up with and now completely runs as a five car

    I think these would do better on something like the NLL
