Now I love to trainspot.
Mostly steam, but if that isnt trundling around on a particaular day then I want a decent diesel. A voyager is not very pleasant to spot and neither is a pendolino. For one thing their numbers are so small you cannot take them, not that I would want to. I would even go as far to say that a leyland pacer is better looking, and thats a bus. I spot on the mid cheshire and at stockport occasionally, and this is not a DMU I want to see. They are not long enough for their money if you ask me. So what have we got, bad seats bad air, bad noise, bad vibration and may I say bad doors. You could guide in aircraft with those!

Davat, believe me, the right sort of noises were being made up the front end. And plenty of 'em! The grin hasn't left my face yet, despite visiting the mother-in-law this afternoon!
Cheers, 62440.

Scott V you would do well to investigate the very mixed opinions on Voyagers as they are a fast modern DMU but they do have a reputation for being noisy as others have suggested. I wouldn't want to sleep on one thats for sure.
