Didn't you lot know? That's RSSB acceptance testing for the Network Rail solution to 'gapped' trains. ;)

You will, of course, know should you have read the article(s) on his attempt at a world record that he trained for months on end to do that. I forget how or whatever, but certainly not something he'd have just dropped into.

Glad he didn't try it at somewhere like Reading...Would have screwed things up for days!

Doesn't another country over that way (Thailand?) also have a similar product to the BREL class 158?

The RoI has a DMU class very similar in noise, performance and style to the 158. You'd think it just rolled over from Wales off the ferry, it looked so much like one! Quick paint job on the way over too!
