Had my first experience with the Nova 3 today, saw it departing Manchester Victoria this morning as it headed to Scarborough, I then caught it on it's return run from York to Leeds. Have to say the onboard experience felt like a huge step up from the 185's it's replacing as well as feeling like more oomph on the power and speed as we departed York. The onboard team were also very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately onboard was a mess from the passengers, but with several high profile events I guess that is to be expected.
