What's the longest passenger train in the UK? Whatever train is in Euston in which you've got a reserved seat in the furthest carriage, and they've announced the platform 10 milliseconds before its departure time. You know, for your safety....

Honestly, I did a return trip on 222s between London and Norwich once, and the train itself was quieter and more comfortable than anything we have here in Canada. Yes, people were standing on the outbound trip, but that was because the earlier train had been cancelled. Although the train itself is comfortable (you can actually stand in it, as opposed to getting flung out the roof as it collapses into itself on a Budd car), the seats did leave something to be desired as they started to dig into the back of my theighs after about an hour. At least they weren't bad enough to give me back pain after but 10 minutes like the new Go Train seats.

I remember these coming in to service and thinking they were nowhere as near as good as the Intercity 125s and 225s, they always seemed cramped, even when they were empty. 24 years later and I was unfortunate enough to travel on one again recently and it was a tatty rattly heap that seemed to be in worse condition than the older trains they are only just decommissioning. Interesting video, I am going to have a mooch about your channel, I am especially interested in the Class 180s.

Just so your aware, the train in the top right corner of the thumbnail, is a class 222 meridian, they are not part of the voyager family, you might want to swap it out with a 221 from avanti
@willridestrains
@willridestrains 10 күн бұрын
It’s technically a variant of the voyager and is very, very similar to the voyagers. Yes I know, it’s a Meridian, but for what it is it basically counts as a voyager, for the same reason that the 810 counts as an at300

@Milo_Trainspotter 9 күн бұрын
@willridestrains the class 810 IS an at300, bad example to use, and you are using a technicality, I'd still switch it to a 221 bc there are no technicality with that

I’ve read the window issue actually did get fixed quite a while back, by simply replacing the curved glass with flat panes. That reportedly has the side effect of making the cab feel slightly smaller

Quite generous for Scotrail given current events. Their rolling stock is also going to age terribly over the next few years due to the HST debacle and its knock on effects to 170s and the already tired 158s.

In the good old days of a Peak and ten, eleven, even twelve coaches, I never noticed any overcrowding, and it was by no means rare for a relief to be run at peak times, such as Christmas and Easter.

The overcrowding only really occurs because they sell more tickets than available seats. Remove the unreserved tickets and go to an all reservation model. It works very well in Queensland and NSW. Where it's no reservation no travel!

I've always HATED these trains (mainly the Cross Country ones). When I was living in Leeds and travelling down to SwindonI would have to get these to Cheltenham/Bristol and I rarely ever got a seat. Even when I reserved a seat, the seat never had enough leg room so I would then be cramped and uncomfortable for the entirety of the journey anyway!
