Class 319s?
On this page there is a section where it states that the Northern Rail class 323 fleet was to be replaced by the class 319 in 2016.

While I can find reliable news sources confirming that the Northern Rail class 323 fleet was planned to be replaced in 2016 after being moved to the west midlands, I can’t find any news sources saying the class 323 would be replaced by class 319 units.

This news sources talk about the planned removal of class 323s but it never says the 17 Northern Rail 323s were planned to be replaced by 319s.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/three-commuter-rail-routes-manchester-9914651 Rail Magazine also talks about the planned removal of the Northern Rail class 323s in 2016 but never says the class 323 would be replaced by class 319s on any routes that were operated by class 323 EMUs.

If any fellow editors have any reliable news sources proving the class 323s were planned to be replaced by class 319s in 2016 please feel free to post them here. Maurice Oly (talk) 02:37, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
