message: I have read somewhere that the MML sets are not 222/0, but rather were 222/4 and 222/9 (dependent on length).  Am I right or am I wrong?  Chris cheese whine 20:34, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, according to Rolling Stock Review 2019-2020 [9781912205981-19] the 222/0 (222001-222006) is the 7-car stock, 222/4 [222007-222023] is 5-car stock, and 222/1 [222101-222104] is now 4-car stock.

message: "Recently an additional stop was introduced at Howden"
How relevent is this statement? It appears irrelevent to my eye, but could it be as a result of the faster journey times? 82.40.75.55 22:55, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Hull Trains 

message: I was told that by a member of staff (who was also a rail enthusiast).
The statement that 017 is out of service is correct, and i can prove this, as i have seen nothing of it in the way of photos on fotopic since Thursday (the day it was taken out of service).
Also, I can trust that that person is correct, as they told me a EMT class 153 would be coming in at 11.00, and they were correct.

replies: text: Who is this who posts pictures of every train in service to fotopic on a daily basis?  Still, the member of staff in question probably knows what he/she's talking about, though I'm not sure if random personal communications count as sources as far as Wikipedia policy is concerned.  Moreover, you still haven't provided any evidence for the bit that caught my attention – "apparently this is something to do with the yellow on the front of the unit not covering a sufficient area". -- Smjg (talk) 13:57, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  222017 taken out of service : more details 

message: I've removed mention of all the subclasses until someone can clarify this:
Only one source mentions the 222/4 and 222/9 subclasses and there are no sources that I have found to suggest any mechanical difference between the hull and midland trains versions.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by FengRail (talk • contribs) 19:20, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: update

message: The Department for Transport does not make any distinction between the five and seven car units operated by East Midlands Trains. On its list of vehicles that comply with the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations, it lists 222001-222023 as Class 222. On the same list, the four units that were operated by Hull Trains are listed as Class 222/1. this can be seen here. The reason that the 222/1 is classed seperately is not due to any mechanical differences, but because of the different internal layout, which saw a four car Hull Trains unit seating 192, compared to 174 on a four car MML unit. Bombardier Class 222; The Railway Centre Class 222. As a consequence, I think it is correct that the EMT units be classed as Class 222/0, as that is what they are numbered as. Please note also that the page on The Railway Centre has not been updated since 2006. [[User:Hammersfan|Hammersfan] 24/02/09, 15.45 GMT
:Hello thanks for supplying that reference - I've readded the mention of class 222/1 into the article with the reference.
:However did you realise that upom reverting you undid work done to the article as well as reintroducing some erronius references.?FengRail (talk) 20:43, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: By the way see the talk section above for the reason for the temporary removal of the 222/1 reference. Thanks for clarifying that.FengRail (talk) 20:44, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Class 222 subclasses

message: I've asked for clarification on the electric connections on the class 222 - on the site listed http://www.rssb.co.uk/rv_coupling_system_data/list_index.asp there is no mention of inter-unit electric connectors - so I assume they are absent.
Is this right.?FengRail (talk) 17:46, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
