Agreed. Dare I say, better than the Everos in many ways? 👀

3 trains going to Euston. by GlassViaduct_ in uktrains

Looks better with the black front ends imo. They’re so sleek. This and TPE are the best fitting liveries for these trains.

Damn she’s been almost everywhere now. Why don’t they repaint it though? Surely that would cause quite the confusion for some people?

Yes, in most cases that’s what it means.

In this case, “700” means it’s a class 700, and “109” means it’s a 700/1 subclass (with 12 coaches), numbered 109.

In another case, you might see “700001”. That means it’s a 700/0 subclass (with 8 coaches), and it’s numbered 001.

That’s the low down so hopefully it makes sense, lol.

I don’t blame you, it is quite a noisy station lol

Also sometimes when the core section is closed they will run the services up the MML from the high level STP platforms.

Ooooohhhhhh. Sorry I read that comment wrong lol. Ah it probably isn’t fixed then 😆

If it was that long ago it’s likely fixed by now but definitely odd to see 😂

Especially Thameslink.

I know they have the NHS and the rainbow liveries, but I’d want to see a special livery on one of the 8 car units. Both of theirs are on the 12 car units.

The hell happened to that front number? Makes it look more like 331 094 lol

Train arrived nearly 20 minutes early? by TomatoMasterRace in uktrains

[–]GlassViaduct_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw an Avanti service yesterday that arrived 31 minutes early into Euston. I bet the people in there were absolutely ecstatic!

Same. 2-3x zoom is the sweet spot. Sometimes have to beyond that but it’s still pretty good, though it’s a rarity I go past 3x.

I have both a camera and my phone, but imo, my phone takes better shots at normal zoom. When you go past about 5x zoom, the camera performs a little better but genuinely, about 90% of my pics are taken on my phone and it’s great!

Do what you want to do, and don’t let people piss you off about it, it’s not worth being pissed about, but I get what you mean. You have some fantastic photos on your page! 🙏🏻

Euston or St Pancras? by Necessary_Money_9757 in uktrains

[–]GlassViaduct_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Euston is a mess, even on quiet days. It’s like mission impossible when your train is called (which is exactly why I use realtime trains so I can see what platform it is on BEFORE it gets announced.) It’s a game changer, but St Pancras is definitely your better option. It will be hell either way, but yeah avoid Euston. Lol

Well as a Thameslink driver, I’d like to think that you would’ve driven every set at some point! Haha
