Guess The UK Train Class

[Peter Mugridge]

I think it looks very much like City of Truro's funnel?


Ashpan ( floor! ) open if it is.

 

[Temple Meads]

That appears to be in quite light steam, so

I would say Didcot's 43xx (5322)

Can't get better than that!

I've somehow deleted the original pic, but here's one taken at the same time:

 

[Class172]

Anyone going to post a new picture?

 

[Temple Meads]

Anyone going to post a new picture?

I would, but I did the last one, so I'll pass this time.

 

[ole man]

Been a while, so lets try a really easy one

 

[Temple Meads]

Is it a HST?

 

[ole man]

Not a HST

 

[northernrail]

Its the APT Class 370 i think....

 

[ole man]

Over to you

 

[northernrail]

Open Floor.

 

[Class172]

Class 90?

EDIT: too late

 

[Class172]

Just to get things moving again.

 

[Nym]

Class 158

 

[Class172]

No, not a class 158.

 

[Temple Meads]

Not a 323 is it?

(Most things in the quiz forum seem to be these days...!)

 

[Class172]

I'm not Nym so it isn't a class 323.

 

[Nym]

Not a 323 is it?

(Most things in the quiz forum seem to be these days...!)

Only most things that I post...

I don't know the interiors, but I'm quite sure it's a late 2nd gen BR DMU (3rd Gen. BR if you count it seperate) So to spam guesses... 159, 165, 168?

I don't always make it 323s, I did jubilee 1996 stock once that took a very long time to get guessed...

 

[Class172]

Your spamming was to no avail I'm afraid, none of those answers are correct.

 

[Nym]

I'm also loosing faith in the IET and hope to god the idiot that just spouted off about HS2 isn't an actual member....

Hmmm... Couldn't be an early post BR DMU? Class 170?

 

[Class172]

Nope.

 

[Temple Meads]

Hmm, Class 168?

 

[Class172]

No, the answer is staring you in the face, literally!

 

[Temple Meads]

Class 172?

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Could be the 377 ( in his avatar! ) instead?!


Floor open if it is.

 

[Class172]

Class 172?

Correct, it is a class 172, in particular, a LM one.

No it isn't a 377, and I'd be shocked if a 377 had ever made it up to Droitwich Spa — it is 172345 sitting at DTW.

Oops.... didn't notice the lack of a 3rd rail in the small avatar picture!

( Should have twigged from your user ID and location I suppose... )





I suppose that is an entry for the clanger of they year at the year end review next week?!

 

[Temple Meads]

OK, here we go:

 

[Class172]

Class 43?

 

[Track Basher]

I would go for a Mk3 carriage of some sort.

 

[Temple Meads]

Neither of those
