They could do with some pretruding over-riders.I'm defo not a fan of the 323 but they do sound pretty good mind you...
The Class 70 is one big pretruding over-rider but nobody likes it (except me) !They could do with some pretruding over-riders.
Interior of 317/2 was same as 317/1 when new. It was changed during refurb when they became 317/6With respect to the 455's, the /8's and the early 317's had the ugly fronts which were "improved" with the 455/7's, /9's and 317/2's.
Despite the front ends, the 317's had lovely interiors when new - esp the /2's
What?! The Desiros look great, the 455's aren't really ugly but they don't look better than the Desiro's. I don't really find any trains ugly, the 319s aren't the best looking and neither are the 376s but I will have to agree on the Class 43 Warships.Class 455 is a beauty but all the desiros are bloody ugly. Electrostars are meh class 800/801/802 can be scrapped networkers are beauties
"Class 455 is a beauty"Class 455 is a beauty but all the desiros are bloody ugly.
Couldnt've worded it better
455 is a beauty!? The first time I caught one in my early teens, I was aghast at the look. The livery never helped...Class 455 is a beauty but all the desiros are bloody ugly. Electrostars are meh class 800/801/802 can be scrapped networkers are beauties

Being used to 313s and 321s, it was certainly a shock.

Ah, I see you are a man of taste.I’m with you - I like the 70s... big and purposeful... no frills...
In these threads there's usually a consensus that the 455/8s are uglier than the /9s... but tbh I prefer the /8s because at least they look a bit distinctive. The /7s and /9s just look like souped-up Sprinters.While accepting that tastes are subjective, anyone who thinks the Class 455 is a beauty has weird tastes
I must admit that I quite like the brutish look of them too. I reckon I could make a good one out of Lego too...Ah, I see you are a man of taste.
Sire, I disagree with your statement and think it would be advisable to take an eye test. Does that work?Couldnt've worded it better
Agreed.While accepting that tastes are subjective, anyone who thinks the Class 455 is a beauty has weird tastes
Agreed. You take a look at one of them and just know they mean business.I must admit that I quite like the brutish look of them too. I reckon I could make a good one out of Lego too...
And none of them.So, just to recap then. The ugliest train in Britain is..... all of them
Looks like we can start a Class 70 fan community after all.Agreed. You take a look at one of them and just know they mean business.
Oh that’s a good one.What worse than an ugly train?
A beautiful train made ugly out of spite.
On an unrelated note, Thompson A1/1 No. 4470 Great Northern.
Oh that’s a good one.
