(Ugly) Post here your favourite or worst looking trains

[Dave]

I like the Javelin myself, I love dark colours on fast moving vehicles.

[Kevo00]

GNER FTW.

GNER FTW.

GNER on 373 ftw?

[JamieLei]

I always thought black and red looked really smart. Shame we don't see it on British trains

[EXTspotter]

You're coming home already? - The sign looks like "Narita Express".

[Kevo00]

GNER FTW.

GNER on anything FTW. But especially the fast moving vehicles. Shame the badger never got going in GNER livery.

Splonk...

Haha - yep, it's the NEX, but I'm here for a year. Plus I flew into KIX rather than NRT
Was just saying I liked the colour scheme of the NEX

[Kevo00]

Splonk...

Haha yes...but I don't think they actually ran 89001 much? I remember SeaCo bought it though.

Anyway IMHO GNER were the best post privatisation TOC design wise - their livery actually looks like a railway livery!

ONE, anybody?

Southern also looks like a proper rail livery too, as does... no - that's it.

[Kevo00]

Southern is decent, I give you that.

The rest are either too cool for school (new Virgin, 'Arriva' CrossCountry, Northern), boringly corporate without any thought to design (SWT, EMT, ATW, FGW, Nat Ex East Anglia), or even scarily political (SNP imposed Scotrail).

How about South Easterm? London Midland is another nice one... I always liked WAGN, too...

[Ameecher]

I always liked WAGN, too...

What, NSE? Or the plain purple?

[Kevo00]

Hmmm LM is not too bad, I guess...South Eastern is just a white train with some yellow bits, surely? Admittedly there can be class in simplicity. WAGN is FCC now, surely? Wasn't aware there was ever a separate WAGN livery.

[Badger]

All over purple with a lighter shade for the doors.

[beeb375]

London Midland is a damn good livery, and the final incarnation of Northern's is pretty good I reckon. The new Scotrail one is gash, however.

[Chris]

Chiltern, although nothing will ever beat GNER's on the 373, which is why I have the Hornby model of it +2 coaches .

[Harbon 1]

...GNER's on the 373, which is why I have the Hornby model of it +2 coaches .

Same!

[Chris]

The only thing that I find annoying on mine is that the extra divisible coaches have red seats, and the original two divisible coaches have cream seats .
