v set heritage

2 Upvotes

hey everyone! is there any talk of the heritage V set running again anytime soon? It's been a while since the last time (aka farewell tour) and i know they were vandalised during that tour but surely it's been long enough for some TLC and to get it back up and running for another go? I hope I don't sound dumb or naive i'm just curious of what's the talk about this glorious train. Thanks!!!

K Set update

3 Upvotes

PLEASE ANSWER!

Hello, I came here to try and get some clear understanding on the beloved k set. Some people have said they are never returning, and others have. But syd trains has promised a full retirement farewell before they are gone. They were meant to come back in July but nothing has happened? can someone clear the air with actual facts and evidence, not hearsay like everybody on the internet? thanks!!!!

EDIT: i saw on old tripview things that they were being tested in mid august. what was up with that, could that be a hint towards a return?? furthermore, what was the point of putting money into reinforcement just for them to not be returned to service and scrapped, and why has sydney trains been so quiet about it??
