Looks smart!

 

[Max]

Shame they didn't refurbish all the FGW mk3s to this standard!

 

[First ScotRail]

Looks good! At least FGW actually replaced the seat covers FSR just left them and they look a bloody mess!

Looks really nice and comfortable, looks a tad bright though.

 

[Guinness]

At least it doesn't have the 1000W bulbs.

Good refurb.

Couldn't agree more!

 

[mbonwick]

Very nice...just shows that FGW can do a good job..

Looking smart, although I agree about the brightness. I assume they can dim the lights in the evening for passenegrs who actually want to sleep?

 

[Gizmogle]

Hm....What's standard class like though? Are the seats still nice and thick?

 

[Tom]

I like the lighting arrangement - I suspect the brightness is as a result of HSE or DDA or something equally silly like that ....

I think this calls for a sleeper bash! 8)

Isn't the BFO now the Lounge Car, in which case the lights need to be on "full daylight"
The lighting looks to be on the lower setting
I would assume the TSO are for the seated passengers, so need to find a photo of that interior now

 

[devon_metro]

Think this is the only refurb vehicle out ATM
