Another vote for First Capital Connect Class 319's. Here's a video I took quite a while back - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPQtpMpBLIY
You would have thought that, as most trains of the Cumbrian Coast terminate in platform 2 at Carlisle (a bay with platform faces on both sides) that the windows would be immaculate. However, this winter they seem to have become dirtier by the week. How hard can it be.....? Even after prompting Northern appear to have done nothing to remedy this problem on a very scenic line.
As far as graffiti is concerned the longer it's left the more appears. It works the same way as advertising in that the "tag" is the advert and the object of the exercise is to get maximum exposure. If it's cleaned quickly each time it appears, the perpetrators become disillusioned and either give up or go elsewhere.
