Guess The UK Train Class

[OxtedL]

Bizarrely, it's not a 171. Or a 377. I feel...strange...

 

[Class172]

Class 376?

 

[MCR247]

That doesn't have to be a Dellner, it could be a Scharfenberg coupler..

 

[Class172]

That doesn't have to be a Dellner, it could be a Scharfenberg coupler..

A what!? I've never heard of it - what use them? I'm still sticking with dellner though

 

[MCR247]

I'm not sure tbh

 

[OxtedL]

It's not Bombardier. As to this Dellner mystery, well, your guess is as good as mine.

Sorry to be taking so long over this, I'm doing data crunching for my map today.

 

[Class172]

Class 185?

 

[OxtedL]

Well, it's a DMU...

 

[sprinterguy]

180??

As far as I am aware, Dellner couplers are one particular type of Scharfenberg coupler.

 

[OxtedL]

Make the same sized leap again.

 

[sprinterguy]

175??

 

[Crossover]

OK, so it is a Dellner then...just looked too angular

EDIT: Scrub that (again!), if sprinterguy is right, then as I first thought, it ISN'T Dellner!

So there you go folks, two classes that use Scharfenberg couplers as oppose to the similar Dellner design: 175s and 180s.

Open floor

 

[Eng274]

here's one:

Class 60? [TUG]

 

[Eng274]

Class 60? [TUG]

Correct, here is the full picture.

 

[317653]

Who can do this

 

[Eng274]

class 66?

 

[317653]

no not a 66

 

[Captain Chaos]

365?

Open floor if right.

 

[317653]

Ohhhhh bullseye, how did you guess

 

[Captain Chaos]

Ohhhhh bullseye, how did you guess

As soon as I saw those vents a 365 seemed the logical choice.

 

[317653]

Come on I want to have a guess someone put a photo up

 

[Captain Chaos]

Ahh go on then. Have a go at this one:

 

[Track Basher]

Class 166

 

[Captain Chaos]

nope.

 

[Track Basher]

Class 165 then

 

[Captain Chaos]

Yep that's the one. Thought it would be far too easy.

 

[Track Basher]

As there have been no guesses I will remove this for another day and let someone else have a go.

Off to bed
