There are a number of constraints on how long our trains can be. The main constraints that we face are the limited number of carriages available for use and short platforms that can only take a certain number of carriages.
Our trains are sometimes shorter than planned due to constraints such as train faults with the planned train meaning that we have to use a replacement train which may unfortunately be shorter than the original planned train.
We try to allocate carriages based upon how busy we think each train service is going to be. This ensures that we can provide the maximum capacity possible on our busiest services.
