Merseyrail address passengers' concerns over 'missing' feature on new trains

Merseyrail have explained why one thing has been left off their new trains.

The new £500m Merseyrail 777 trains are currently being rolled out across parts of the network. The trains are yet to be rolled out across the Wirral and Hunts Cross lines but are being used by passengers on the Kirkby and Ormskirk lines. The updated trains feature a new layout, with USB ports and plugs beneath the seats and platform-level boarding for those with mobility problems.

The trains, a "very positive improvement" on the last for many commuters, have received positive feedback according to Merseyrail. However, some have been left asking why one thing has been left out.
