    Good to see you posting again! Totally agree your thoughts on the Northern 195s, the ride quality is appalling and we only get a 2-car unit on Nottingham-Leeds that's invariably overcrowded.

    Very smart modern trains with fast acceleration. Purpose built!

    Can you try out the ScotRail class 380’s, or go on either a 334, 320 or 318 for ScotRail? they are my 4 locals

    Since when did anyone say the class 450s were going?! I haven’t see anything or anyone else saying they would go.

      They’ll still be in service but just not on swr suburban lines

    Great video Daniel.
    The 701's even though they're late are a small improvement from the old 455's. Yes they're uncomfortable with ironing boards and no carpets.
    Even though I like them I don't like how they're replacing the 450's in the future as they're clearly better.

      Why do they need carpets? They would get destroyed by the amount of people travelling on them.

      @@CPTrains I find trains more posh with carpets. That's why I don't understand why some have no carpets whatsoever.

      Interesting video, but with such unyielding seats, how on earth can these trains be described as an improvement on the ever so reliable Class 455s ?

      The 701s are replacing the 455s and NOT the excellent Desiro Class 450s !
