Good to hear, apologies for the late reply.

Thank you Neil, massively appreciated. Had a relaxed day, hope yours was great. 👍

I remember those, such a unique livery.

Yes, there were a number of former NSE coaches that had their red stripe painted out in blue.

Many thanks Peter, hugely appreciated.
The first two coaches are part of a set of coaches that were used on the Hebridean service. They often turned up as part of other rakes of stock.

Hope you’ve had a good day Robert. Hope you managed to catch what you went for. 👍

Well I have to say that given the choice between a 180 and a 220, it would be the 180 every time. (The only voyager I rate is the 221!)
I understand what they tried to do with the 180, it was just the execution that seemed to fail it. 🤷‍♂️

It’s sometimes quite deafening at York as they arrive, it seems to resonate throughout the station. It certainly turns heads and cause grimaces!

Couldn’t agree more Paul.

I agree Carl, as a 125mph capable unit, they remain a useful addition to the UK fleet. Whether there is the will to continue with a small aging fleet is to be seen. 🤷‍♂️

I’d agree with that. 👍

Love this shot Nami. 👍
