8-Car R32 (D) Train

Here's some footage of the R32 trainset which operated on the  this recent Sunday. The shortened train and the front sticker on 3360 made for better photo ops than last week. It also made it easier to get some full shots of the train. Additionally, it was good to see that there weren't any major issues out there, and that everyone behaved.

They weren't able to find another pair to make a full 10-car set? Or was this simply their way of being punitive with the foamers?

They’re not about to spend money cleaning up a two-car unit just to have 10 cars. I don’t think it’s in the budget and whomever destroyed that bench in 3888 or 3889 destroyed it beyond repair.

I'd be surprised if they couldn't swap a bench section out from another OOS car quite easily, unless there was some equipment behind or below it that was damaged.
