I have a question for you: someone few months ago told me that this train has been built for a new connection with the Glasgow Airport...do you have information about this?
Federico Paoletti. Your English is 100% better than my Italian. Yes these trains were ordered for the new Glasgow Airport link from Paisley but after much improvement work between Glasgow and Paisley the new line to the airport was scrapped in 09/2009 by the Scottish Government because of the banking crisis and funding cuts. The 380 units are used on the InverClyde lines out of Glasgow Central to Ayr, Ardrossan and Largs. The class 318 and 334 units which were used on these lines are now on the re opened Airdrie-Bathgate-Edinburgh line.
Glad you like them. Not sure how the rising corridor connection will work when they are covered in snow though !
P.S. Sorry for my english!
