Finally 8xx train, which looks different to other trains form family. BIG PLUS for front "Station indicator" above windscreen. Same strory was Voyager vs. Meridian (MML version was updated and more spacious)

The nose is actually bronze, but I think it looks much nicer with EMR's purple compared to the standard yellow nose colour!

I must say that it's a very pleasant colour scheme on the exterior. I do hope that it's fitted with an efficient A/C system for the hotter summers.

Why are the IETs 5 coaches?
@court692able10 күн бұрын
These are 5 car so if they couple two together they can fit a 10 car in the platform - that’s also why they have 23 metre long carriages instead of 26 metres

Just make 10 and 12 car trains to begin with or even 8 and 12 cars like thameslink
@BritishTrainspotting9 күн бұрын
@@liamgunn4722 The trains are 5+5 coach sets so they can split along their journey, as the whole train does not go to the same destination, and both destinations have less demand than a full 10-car set, hence the 5+5 coach units that split. This is a very common practice on the railways.

Very much agree. Travelled frequently from Manchester to Carlisle with Trans Pennine. Used to be 8 coach trains,now 5 coach trains similar to these being discussed. Every train now completely overcrowded.

Come on people! 4 platforms at St Pancras! One of which is really only for the 360s. They need to be 5 coaches so that more than one service can occupy a platform to maintain the 4tph InterCity service!

That's not Hitachi's fault. That's down to the customer's spec, in the case of the GW 80X stock the DfT. Just like the class 700s. A capable piece of rolling stock, let down by poorly specified interior layout and choice of seats.

@@jefffranklin4894 It is all down to the operator. They specify the interior. There is a minimum, standard for seat comfort and every company has asked for it. Not one has gone for a higher specification, because that costs more. They only care about profits,not the bums on the seats. Passengers in this country are treated like cattle.
