The British Rail Class 334 is a suburban electric multiple unit built by Alstom in Birmingham. They are part of the Coradia Juniper family of trains along with classes 458 and 460.

Announcement systems

In line with other SPT electric units (classes 318 and 320), the 334s are fitted with automatic announcement systems. These originally featured a woman with a strong Glasgow accent who was always criticised by commuters, and nicknamed "Annoying Annie"^{[citation needed]} but has since been replaced by Scottish actress Fletcher Mathers. In March 2006 to coincide with the Scottish legislation banning smoking in public places, the Passenger Information Systems (PIS) were updated to inform customers of the ban at Stations where public buildings are in use. This notice has subsequently been removed, but now an occasional announcement appears reminding passengers that all accommodation is non-smoking. 318267 at Gourock railway station, showing corridor connection on the drivers cars. ...

The announcement system is well known to be unreliable^{[citation needed]}. The announcements often get out of sync with the train's location and First ScotRail's regular amendments to the information system usually lead to more errors and incorrect interchange information. Although reliability is improving, many problems are still encountered which can cause confusion for passengers who do not know the line well.^{[citation needed]}
