The reliability of 19385/6/8/9 seems to have dropped off a cliff, I've noticed a sharp increase in single decks on the 'express' routes recently which creates rather unpleasant experiences in the evening peak.
To be honest, it seems like they've been struggling for awhile.
It's just not noticeable as they a ridiculous number of spares. Like talking about the E200's bar the few on the 32/32A I'm not sure they're needed there, at all, yet there's like 16 of the things there - if everything was actually in service.
I could be wrong though, but can't see where they're needed.
