There will also be platforms can accommodate a pair of 69m 323s but can't accommodate a pair of 319s without the rear unit being locked out-of-use. Salford Crescent being probably the largest station where that's the case. (Note anywhere on an electrified line that can take a 6 car 185, can also take a 6 car 323.)

A 323 actually has more standard class seats than a 9 car Pendolino albeit in a higher density 3+2 formation.
