  Yes if my eyes arent failing me, i seem to see those yellow stickers near the doors.
  
  
  I would be amused if they introduced Batch 2s again, after almost 100 Batch 3s are out.

  Tthey won't introduce Batch 2 again unless Batch 3 have manufacturing defects. There are (maybe) minor improvements in the newer batches so it is worth the money spent.

  Yes there are improvements. Braking wise, not so jerky anymore. That's major.

  so at 1st dec, 64, 183 and 199 WAB? why not those already got B9 like 25,88etc. and i think 166 and 197 needs to be a WAB service.
