They're currently awaiting test before entering service, X75/X76 is the rumoured route for them although knowing the way things work they'll end up on most routes in reality.

I was hoping for them to get the seats out of the Omnicities but instead it's just the existing seats being retrimmed in e-leather, hopefully that improves things but I doubt it.

The seats certainly ain't comfortable, 721 which usually does the 689 has the same seats and wasn't nice for a 55 min trip.
