[ChrisCooper]

DMU - 158, far to much lost time from problems compared to milage done
EMU - 390
DEMU - not much choice really, Voyagers
loco - can't turn down any loco these days, but 57/3s are least favorite, reasons - ugly, Virgin
if I was to add electric loco aswell, it would be 90s, just because relative to the types they are too damn common (especially on passenger work)

Sheds, dildos, meridians. Basically any modern DMU/DEMU/EMU and loco for that matter, hate them all, anything pre 1992 is good, with exeptions for bodysnatchers, although i would always prefer to see a duff.

Never heard of a Pendo referred to as this

But these are commonly referred to as such, also to be found in France and Luxembourg.

They don't look too bad. But I've never ridden in one before, so can only base on looks.

That is where the nickname comes from, have only ever ridden in this one - not too bad for a modern unit IIRC.

 

[Callufrax]

My least favourite, anywhere, would undoubtedly have to be the much unloved Pacer series.

 

[323235]

DMU - class 150s - northern ex-arriva units are discuisting ,never had a clean in there life, the ex-fnw 3x2 seating is annoying,too much wasted space, dense 2x2 seating would be more benefical

EMU - class 390 - not enough luggage space and that red emergency button grrrr lol

 

[djw1981]

DMU: 142s (never been on one, but they look sh*t)
EMU: 320s
DEMU: ?
loco: (6)66s

What have you against the 320's?

Personally I dislike the 314's more.

Yes, the 320s are OK, but not too great. In my opinion, the 334 Junipers are worse.

 

[5872]

EMU 313
DMU 165
DEMU - Dont care tbh
Loco - Understatement here.

 

[ah-media]

The 319 is the work of Satan who was having a very bad day !

 

[37427]

DMU - 165
EMU - 390
DEMU - 220
Loco - 66

 

[Techniquest]

Here we go then:

DMU: 142
EMU: 319
DEMU: 222
Diesel: 47
Electric: 91

 

[me123]

Personally I dislike the 314's more.

They're too commutery for me. I find them to be uncomfrotable, and what's-her-face keeps saying "PLEASE MIND THE GAP WHEN ALIGHTING FROM THIS TRAIN!!!". Uncomfortable as well.

Although I understand that they are good units from an operational persepctive, I just hate them! 334s and 318s are far better.

Here we go then:
DEMU: 222

Not meaning to nag/annoy you, but aren't 222s similar to Voyagers? :?

 

[Techniquest]

Similar but NOT the same...PM me if you want to know the whole story of why I hate 222s.
