Rumours are rumours until such time NX either confirm or deny things and I'd doubt any employee would confirm or deny any rumours due to commercial confidentiality etc.

There's rumours that WA are getting 4 more platinums with the x51 been upped to every 7 mins

Wonder if more people are travelling now that the free travel facility on Central Trains has been been removed with the installation of barriers at New Street?

WA could well be down to receive more Platinum's since the introduction of the 937

I wonder if we are to see a Coventry platinum route? I know the 900 uses Coventry but I mean a NXC route

I thought the 937 replaced the 936 during the day?
