BR Class 158 fluorescent

These DMUâ€™s are getting on a bit now but I still like them tbh. Quick, quiet and comfortable with good fluorescent lighting and air conditioning.

No rubbish LED retrofit here, yet...

Getting on a bit? Those are tomorrow's world compared to the buses on two pairs of train wheels we have.

I travelled on a 158 to Norwich for work back in 1997, it was a very smooth ride, though there were a hell of a lot of station stops! Always loved the lighting on trains, right back to the old tungsten lighting, it always looked like they put a lot of thought into it.

lol I have a soft spot for the old 142 Pacers... especially when you go over a set of points and then the whole thing starts bouncing up and down and squealing like a stick pig Laughing

A shame we donâ€™t see them anymore since the Liverpool to Manchester line was electrified and we got new ( quite old) electric trains cascaded from down south.
