Guess The UK Train Class

[IanPooleTrains]

I'll have a go, let me go and grab a picture

 

[Class172]

Looks like a gangwayed unit...

Class 350?

Yep, cab of a Dessy, over to you

 

[MCR247]

A /1 to be exact

 

[IanPooleTrains]

A /1 to be exact

How can you tell?

 

[Crossover]

I thought I recognised this pic - just realised where from!

I suspect the /1 is because of the seat covering - whereas /2 are green

Isn't it the other way around?

Ah, it seems I have a slight problem, I'm on my ipod so I can't really do much with the pictures

I'll open floor it (someone please do a diesel unit/loco that is really hard )

 

[4SRKT]

Try this. Not too hard if you're an old git like me.

 

[ainsworth74]

Class 124?

 

[deltic1989]

Its a dmu is it a 122?

 

[4SRKT]

Not 124.

 

[4SRKT]

Not a 122 either. 122s were suburban configuration.

 

[ainsworth74]

Class 101?

 

[sprinterguy]

Class 108?

 

[Mvann]

Class 123

 

[Class172]

Class 124?

That's what I thought, I'll go for a 123 then

 

[4SRKT]

Not a 123 either. It's not an Inter City unit.

Sprinterguy is the closest so far.

 

[Class172]

Class 105?

 

[sprinterguy]

Class 110?

 

[4SRKT]

Class 110?

Getting colder again. That's no BRCW body.

Class 105?

Nope. 105s never got blue and grey livery.

 

[Class172]

Class 114? (if it existed)

 

[Mvann]

Class 120 then

 

[4SRKT]

Class 114? (if it existed)

Correct, although you seem to have taken guessing to new heights!

114s were a 64' version of 108s, called Derby Heavyweights, as opposed to 108s being on 57' frames and known as Derby Lightweights. Counting the windows between the vestibules gives the clue.

 

[Track Basher]

A Lincoln beastie.

 

[Ivo]

Wow, this thread is really flying! Has Guess the Station got competition now?

As promised, I'll be ready to join in as soon as I return to England

 

[OxtedL]

I'm already preparing a census...!

There are a few less rolling stock classes than stations, so I would (tentatively and gloomily) predict that it will peter away before it catches up.

Although already we are seeing communication between the two!

 

[Track Basher]

As no one seems to be taking the floor I will butt in.

We'll expect you to compile the statistics and estimated date when we overtake GTS!

TB, is that 158842 in the Western Mail advertising livery from the mid 2000s?

Floor open if right.
