Refurbished Avanti West Coast 221 Super Voyager (221101) (18/09/20). I love Super Voyarrrrgers! I travelled from Crewe to Wigan North Western on 221101. Let's get the Super Voyager Shoot going! :)

Great vlog G! Very descriptive of the interior and exterior of the Super Voyagers. I will certainly miss seeing these trains on the rail network. I saw one last week whilst i was waiting for my train home and what a beast they are. They make a lot of noise. Can't wait to learn more train related dances from you next time.

Brilliant Video! very funny indeed, I see Kylie Minormskirk getting his fifteen minutes of fame at the end lol but what REALLY impressed me is how you contacted Avanti West Coast to ask them where 221101 is. it one of those things that people do ask over Twitter.

Sorry if this is a silly question, but does this go past runcorn Station? I would assume so because you can see the bridge at 1:10 but I'm just trying to make sure. I would love to see one of these when I visit my grandad because we trainspot at runcorn

Such a dull seating moquette. With the rich colours in their branding (especially on pendolino livery), avanti could have really made the new interiors of their trains feel bold, opulent, warm, vibrant, and above all, exciting. I hope they build on the design for the pendolinos.
