Class 800 and Class 801 Differences

[rdlover777]

What are the differences between these two apart from the 800 being bi-mode and the 801 being full AC, i would like to know as i'm drawing the diagrams for the LNER/VTEC 801s for the wiki page


thanks in advance, Daniel.

None, really since all of the engines on the 800 are covered by under body hoardings that the 801 also has. Perhaps there might be exhaust stacks, but apart from that the 801s and 800s are visually identical so you could use the same diagram.

Visually they're exactly the same. For LNER both the 5 car and 9 car 800s and 801s will have a shop, but that only takes up a very small amount of space in one of the coaches.

Slight update, i made a v1 of the shop coach sprite.
Side A:

Side B:

It's just a case of it looks right, works right

On the B side, it looks like the second window from the right should also be blanked out if this video of a pair of sets arriving at Newcastle is anything to go by - freeze it at 1.22 and 1.56

I assume the interior arrangement is something like a Voyager shop, with magazine racks or something similar in that area.

looks like future proofing to me

Robots won't want window seats if they can call up the view on their ???

Ok, so the diagrams have been made, below are the sprites for the 800 and 801
