There’s tunnels between the old court house and the prison apparently - expect some might be rediscovered when they redevelop the place.

I thought that - a lot of “dead” space in the middle with the two power cars together but potentially allows to break the service the other end and service more destinations. Can’t see them doing it this side as the demand seems very strong so a 200m train taking a path doesn’t seem good value.

Other half got one of the new ones and the gold embossing wasn’t even straight on the front cover. Not that it affects its performance/security - just seems to sum up the situation well.
