What Service Will Eleven Class 345 Trains Provide On The Shenfield Metro?

This article in the International Railway Journal is entitled Crossrail Trains Enter Passenger Service.

This is the third paragraph.

In the initial phase of operation from Liverpool Street TfL Rail will operate 11 trains, which have been formed as 160m-long seven-car sets to cope with shorter platforms. All 11 of these trains will be in service by September, replacing pairs of class 315 EMUs, which date from the early 1980s. Some of these trains will be retained until the full Elizabeth Line service begins in 2019.

So it would appear that when these eleven trains are all in service, the Shenfield Metro service will be run by new Class 345 trains.
