Looking at going to Worcester from Reading, does anyone know which diagrams are operated by turbos so they can be avoided.

Booked on a HST and an Adelante

What are Adelantes like compared to HSTs

If the FGW Adelantes are like the First Hull Train 180s than they are quite comfy, goodish leg room (table seat). Suffers the same fate as the 220/221/222s in that when idling you can feel the underfloor engines vibrate.

I'm hoping to finally catch a FGW if I can try and get this coming Friday off (on my list of 4 weekday activities [other 3 are catching a non-gatwick express 442, catching the 150/0s which do Reading/Basingstoke on weekdays & The Chiltern Paddington service)

I got unlucky doing the Oxford/Worcester-Super-Mere line on Turbos :(
