[@AndrewG1989]

The Class 319 and Class 350/2 are to be replaced by the Class 730. And c2c Class 720/6 should enter service by the end of this year.

11:50 Nice C2C 720! C2C is my local by the way. I prefer Greater Anglia 720.

Is Class 720 C2C still nicknamed: Flirt Train?

[@AndrewG1989]

No that's Greater Anglia Class 745 & Class 755. And TfW Class 231 & Class 756.

[@MiniforceRailfan]

@@AndrewG1989 so is Class 720 C2C an Aventra? You said it’s not a Flirt Train for C2C

[@deadaccount2048]

All 720s are aventras, the 745s amd 755s are flirts. Flirts are made by Stadler, a German company, but aventras are made by Bombardier, a Canadian company. Flirts also run in Germany and other European continents, but look very different. Only Greater anglia (and TfW now too) have flirts, whilst most train companies in the UK have aventras.

[@deadaccount2048]

Other aventras include the 345, 701, 710, 720, & 730

[@MiniforceRailfan]

So that Class 720’s Name for C2C is: Class 720 Aventra C2C
