Infobox Photo
[edit]Why does the infobox picture not include the whole driving cab? 194.80.106.135 (talk) 15:52, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
- Because somebody changed it. I have swapped it for the previous image which shows the cab. NRTurner (talk) 09:01, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
Possible change to the title of this article
[edit]This article is currently named in accordance the Wikipedia:WikiProject UK Railways naming conventions for British rolling stock allocated a TOPS number. A proposal to change this convention and/or its scope is being discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#Naming convention, where your comments would be welcome. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Avicennasis (talk • contribs) 18:22, 10 March 2011
- This paragraph was added 2011 - I guess that discussion is now over ! -- Beardo (talk) 12:51, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Beardo: it was really a no consensus result. While the current title isn't exactly accurate, it is sort of the least worst option. -mattbuck (Talk) 13:13, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

Diagrams
[edit]Not major, but the diagram for the Class 375/9 is wrong. The First Class section is found at either end of the unit, not in coach 2 or 3. Could someone possibly change this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doomotron (talk • contribs) 19:34, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Formations
[edit]The Formation section in the infobox currently (Apr 2021) states:
375/3 - 3 cars per unit (DMOC-PTOSL-DMOS) 375/6 - 4 cars per unit (DMOC-PTOSL-MOSL-DMOC) (refurbished - (DMOS-PTOSL-MOCL-DMOS)) Others - 4 cars per unit (DMOC-TOSL-MOSL-DMOC) (refurbished - (DMOS-PTOSL-MOCL-DMOS)) 375/9 (refurbished) - 4 cars per unit (DMOC-PTOSL-MOSL-DMOC)
This implies that Class 375/3 is a dual-voltage pantograph fitted unit (ie PTOSL rather than TOSL), which I believe is incorrect.
Equally it implies refurbished units of sub-classes 375/7 and 375/8, listed as 'Others', and 375/9 are being converted to dual-voltage pantograph fitted (PTOSL vs TOSL) during refurbishment which I don't think is the case as it is mentioned in neither the Refurbishment section, nor the referenced Southeastern press release.
The listed refurbished formation for Class 375/9 also seems to fail to reference the combination of first class into the MOSL, making it a MOCL and the DMOC units DMOS. There are no references in either the Refurbishment section, or the referenced Southeastern press release to this not being done on the 375/9s as it is on all the other sub-classes.
I have no references to hand confirming all of this, but as it stands the information is definitely inconsistent between Formations, Refurbishment, and the Southeastern press relief quoted as reference. 86.8.177.103 (talk) 16:54, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
- Technically, the PTOSL on the 375/3 should just be TSOL since despite having the pantograph well in place, it doesn't actually have a pantograph. WestRail642fan (talk) 20:33, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
