    Indeed, the inside of the unrefurbed cabs are not the best environment to spend over 2 1/2 hrs in. Manky, Musty, fag stained and looking like pigeons had been in there a for a while

    I've yet to find a power car van door that actually locks property or isn't labelled do not use. I for one wouldn't want anyone getting in there with the control cabinet, fire systems and especially parking brake controls. Not to mention the left over ATP gubbins hanging out out its cabinet...

    Northern ex-scotrail class 158

    Those ones with the first class armchairs weren't refurbished when ScotRail got them, bare minimum only. Ex Alphaline? Silver bullets? Drivers desks were also a nightmare state of various hotchpotch modifications
