Arriva 142072 |
Description: |
These BR Class 142 "Pacer" railbuses were originally introduced by BR in the 1980s in an attempt at cutting costs on branchlines. Being as cut-rate as they are (like most railbuses), they have sometimes been rated by railway magazines as the most hated rail vehicles in Britain, although Im not clear on where they got their survey data. Im just thankful to have rail transport, although I would agree that they ride rough, theyre slow (75 m.p.h.), theyre loud, theyre a little bit cramped, the seats are crude, and they arent always kept clean (although this isnt a result of the design). I rode this one, now Arriva #142072, to Cardiff from Barry. |

Arriva 150281 |
Description: |
While looking at the other extra Barry photo, I found three more, but from my cameraphone. This one is on the bridge to Barry Island on the Barry Island branch. The train is a BR Class 150 DMU, still in use after roughly 35 years (I dont know the exact build date). These were old even when I was living in Britain, and are still in service even today. They can only operate at about 75 m.p.h., but this isnt a problem on many of the branchlines in Britain, and they have an advantage over most of the newer classes because they have more luggage space, or at least usable luggage space. Theyre particularly handy if youre travelling with a bike. |
