    Northern Class 331: Construction/Introduction Updates

    Just been on one of these, but sitting in coach B for the first time. The banging from the pantograph was pretty disconcerting until I worked out what it was and it would frighten more sensitive souls!

    LNER Azuma (Class 800/801)

    There were two five coach sets coupled together in Leeds station tonight. Seats 1, 2 and 3 in coaches E & M are first class seats without windows. Was really surprised to see that, literally no window rather than being not aligned with the window. Some might like it but I think that they...

    Northern 333 refurbishments

    It was at Ilkley at 0630 this morning (looking a bit sad) but I don’t know where it had come from/whether it had been in Ilkley overnight.
