express. city is only for the West Midland routes Mattdickinson 11:28, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Pages have been created for the LM Sub-brands (express and City). Please help and get these pages up to scratch. Thanks, Dewarw 17:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Didn't think I'd ever be defending Silverlink but Govia/ London Midland have had a load of delays/cancellations etc. since they took over a few weeks ago. If there are any online groups who are covering this please follow up below for me. Richard W.M. Jones ( talk) 22:43, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

It's weird to see someone say that Southern and Southeastern have a good reputation, I guess they weren't so bad back in 2007? Yamhamdan ( talk) 22:37, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
The PPM in the images is, I believe, the PPM 50. London Midland have placed an order with Parry People Movers for two PPM 60s. Not sure what the difference is but I'm assuming it is slightly bigger?
Worley-d ( talk) 21:15, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Is it necessary to have the photo column for future fleet? As Worley-d points out above, the PPM is not the one that will run the Stourbridge service. Also there is no freely available photo of the clas 172s, and the picture of the 350 is actually a 350/1, which appears above and also at the top. I suggest removing this column. Any thoughts? – Tivedshambo (talk) 17:21, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Apologies for changing 10 to 15... Hadn't realised this new timetable had changed things. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Worley-d ( talk • contribs) 22:48, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi,
The line's in the code but not appearing between class 170 and class 321/4 on the rolling stock table. Can someone sort? cheers

Have removed the term "very cramped" as a description of the Class 350 Desiros as this is POV. I have travelled on them and find them far more spacious than other types of rolling stock on the network. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.104.157.92 ( talk) 11:27, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Can we update the green SVG route map we have in the infobox on this page to reflect the fact services now use the fast lines avoiding Northampton? I have no idea how to edit an SVG file. Thanks. Tom walker ( talk) 13:53, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

I've noticed an anonymous IP has changed the Services part of the page to add a 'supposed' London Euston - Liverpool Lime Street service, however there is no such service on public timetables that I can see. Is it better to change it to remove that reference or leave it as-is? Shane ( talk) 19:54, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
Thankyou RedRose64 - as I cannot find any evidence to support that particular edit, I will look into reverting the change. Shaneturner12 ( talk) 21:59, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
I propose that most or all of the information within the Services section be removed and replaced with a service pattern table (similar to those that can be found on other articles like
Southern or
Virgin Trains). I think that such tables are easier to read and more feasible, as well as being easier to edit, should there be a timetable change. As of writing this, there is a table which I have created, available at
my sandbox for review.
Any thoughts?

Hello, Class 150s have always been part of the London Midland fleet, and it was removed without a source. I am restoring this information to the page after it was randomly removed. Even the Class 150 page has London Midland listed as an operator of the Class 150/1.
Please stop vandalising the page with your mis-edits, information should be as accurate as it possibly can be, so please cease.
Thank you.

As published work is an annual publication that came out in October 2016, an updated version may appear imminently. The LM fleet is fairly stable, only change in recent years has been 7 x 319s replacing 7 x 321s. The West Midlands ITT did state that the 150s would be gone by the handover date (at that stage October 2017). But since then, the whole rolling stock cascade timetable has gone out the window when the Great Western electrification program was scaled back, so what is in published franchise agreements may be dated. Long and the short is that the 150s remain with LM as many above with a working knowledge have attested. If others seek not to believe so be it. Huawenx ( talk) 04:08, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
Okay, we've referred to both published and online sources now. What else could you possibly want? A signed affidavit from London Midland? Mordac ( talk) 09:19, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
as at October 2016 the fleet comprised..... It doesn't need to be up to the minute accurate. Anyway the franchise will be changing hands in 6 weeks, so there will be a list of the stock transferred in the trade magazines shortly after I imagine. Huawenx ( talk) 00:37, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
At the risk of kicking it all off again, the 150s are also used on the line from Birmingham New Street to Worcester via Bromsgrove. GBev1987 ( talk) 15:58, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Please can the following section be updated as it is out of date due to it now being 2020 and London midland no longer existing.
“The franchise agreement included the option of replacing the three remaining Class 150/1 in the fleet with six Class 153 units in June 2017.[54] The Northern franchise agreement indicates this option has been taken up, as the London Midland Class 150 units will transfer to Northern in 2017. The Northern franchise agreement also rules out the option of any additional Class 323 units being leased from Porterbrook to London Midland before 1 January 2019“ Maurice Oly ( talk) 23:16, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
