My vid. Thanks for sharing.
Saw this yesterday, no idea on actual working but think 104 was on a Corby later on.

I dont believe there is anything that's staying long term it's all up for replacement within a few years.hopefully application on the fleet that stays will start soon
It's a different franchise with different priorities, but TfW are putting their livery on everything that isn't a Pacer, even though they're doing a complete fleet replacement like EMR.I dont believe there is anything that's staying long term it's all up for replacement within a few years.
TV only shows the outsides of the trains. No one publishes pictures of the grotty insides. They're even less common on sites like this. Interiors are much less popular than exteriors. Very strange when we spend far more time inside trains than outside them!Nice to see this - tho think I'd have been happier if my 158 from Liverpool today had had any interior cleaning whatsoever.....really messy, one lav out of order, finger marks and muck all over window interiors, crisps on seats and floor worse.
Not an example of how to make good first impressions...
Is the horizontal band between the white stripes a different shade, or is it the same but with a different glossiness (like GWR's diagonal stripes)? MML-Commuter's first image suggests to me the glossiness thing, but the third may be a different shade.
Yes, good points!TV only shows the outsides of the trains. No one publishes pictures of the grotty insides. They're even less common on sites like this. Interiors are much less popular than exteriors. Very strange when we spend far more time inside trains than outside them!
It appears to be a different shade so far as I can see, this is one reason it looks rubbish.
Drop the white lines, drop the tapering at the vehicle ends and make it GWR-style matt and that might actually look more of a modern classic. Though the font is awful too.
Is it just me or does that look a needle on the cab sides? Very strange choice of how to end the stripe.Got a chance to ride 222104 in full EMR livery.

Inside is the same EMT interior apart from updated EMR safety posters.
In your opinion
Which isn’t really that surprising as the London Midland livery they are replacing was very nice indeed.I still don't like either the WMR or LNR liveries
When compared with WMR. The main thing distinguishable about EMR livery is the cab ends not being orange. Apart from that their isn’t a lot of differenceWhich isn’t really that surprising as the London Midland livery they are replacing was very nice indeed.

Have any stations had EMR treatment yet (other than putting stickers over the previous incumbent's name)?
Not really when the thameslink have blue doorsReally?
The shade is significantly different (EMR being more on the red side of the purple spectrum) - there's no long stripes on the WMR livery either. Door colours are also different.
That's like saying the Thameslink and Southern liveries are the same, the latter having a few green splodges added.

More 222s updated with EMR Intercity
222021
222022
222101
Also 43049 & 43467 now have white E M R on the blue
They have replaced the branded signage at Derby above the bus stop entrance, however most stations have none-branded signs (e.g. the "welcome to blank station"). Lamp posts are painted in EMT colours though at some stations so they will eventually be done I'd imagine.Oh! I haven't seen anything like that at this stage.

You sure about 222101? Think it was spotted yesterday or the day before with EMT logos still on it
Not really when the thameslink have blue doors
also if a 172 was painted fully purple with white doors would it not be confused with a soon to be EMR regional unit?
222006, 222013 & 222020 are in EMT intercity white with EMR Intercity logos. 153326 is also in EMT Regional Blue with EMR Regional logos.Update time. It looks like the removal of EMT has slowed down somewhat with quite a few units running around with EMT still, even 43081 is still running around in the 11 years livery this afternoon.
