I have yet to see one in that Livery. Photos are looking good.

 

[Jordy]

Be quick, the livery is to be removed soon and replaced by the new squiggley one!!

Thanks for comment

Excellent stuff, sooner the 185 comes the sooner the 158 goes

Lol, yes indeed, I dont like 158s, but will be sort of sad to see them go, they've been the start of many great trips for me! Still, I cant wait for the 185s

Yeah, and standardise our 158/159 fleet, rather than having a mix of 170s. It could benifit us as our 170/3s never seem to be working properley!

Dear o dear, getting them instead of Poor Max in Hull - there will be trouble . On a serious note, very good pictures, the sky was very efective though

Sssssshhhhhhh. Don't tell them that

Its not instead, I believe the original plan was for both routes to have them.

IIRC, the original plan was for the 185's to start on the Hull services, then about 6-8 weeks afterwards, to start on the South TPE services.

Some nice shots, like the idea of getting detail shots like the corridor connection one.

I like that shot a lot. Dramatic sky but bright light on the subject.

The sun was behind me shining on the 185

Sun at Cleethropes!!! Never! You are pulling my legs!

When I go it rains

So I sort of noticed Jordy. Not much of the sun there still though. I'd have used a sarcastic comment on the typical weather being ready to rain on what was quite an interesting event. But that's me.

Lol, honestly, its not always Grim in GRIMsby and district

Really? Every time I see a shot of Cleethorpes it's either pouring down (as the poor people having to dash up the platform for their 158 would have no doubt been unhappy about!) or just overcast as in your shots.

I'll bet there's thunder, lightning and heavy rain when I visit!

Whenever there are visitors to Cleethorpes, it rains

Jordy

 

[Techniquest]

Oh well, I'll make sure I take an umbrella then! Actually, if I'm predicting lightning when I'm there, maybe that's a bad idea...

You can't really talk, its always grim in Grimsby

And yes Jim there is going to be trouble. Those SWT 170s better work for us
