It's fine for him. It's the other drivers who aren't driving it that will be be the ones who see it!

Not necessarily though - drivers of weird trains are bound to be photographed - and the general consensus seems to be that drivers hate cranks photographing them!

Not at all true - some drivers appreciate that people are interested and will give them a way or a quick sound on the horn.

Or... If you drive for Virgin...

Yeah but let's be honest, anyone with Deltic and Matt in their username deserves that sort of treatment.

Cue wibbling. This is the first photo I've found of it that isn't of it half crammed in a shed. Looks suprisingly good and doesn't make a 321 look nearly as crap as they really are.

Balls I say, never liked First's livery, too busy with all the lines, and boring without i.e. picture.

Hmm, not too bad. 8/10 maybe.

Dreadful!

It was never meant to be a secret Badger

What's everyone got against the First corporate livery? - I think it looks rather dashing!

Dreadful = rail enthusiast term for brilliant.

I can imagine the designer sitting down thinking "Lets have some blue, stick on some pink and blue neon trails, et voila!"
Just think it's a bit "samey" but striking nevertheless.
