[Peter Mugridge]

Class 142?

Floor open.


( And I seem to have sniped post #1400...!! )

 

[Jedipickles]

I'll go with... Class 144... it's probably a pacer... but which one...

 

[Ivo]

I'll go with... Class 144... it's probably a pacer... but which one...

It's not going to be a 144 because only Northern use those. It's either a 142 or a 143. And since Peter has claimed 142, I'll go for 143.

Considering the identity of the poser, I think I have an edge here given 143s are still common around Exeter.

 

[221129]

Ivo Is correct cl 143 it is

 

[Ivo]

Open floor.

 

[TrainBoy98]

1) We can go 75 mph easily
2) We are suburban
3) we are used by two TOCs

 

[Temple Meads]

Class 455?

 

[TrainBoy98]

Nope,
4) We are part of the 3xx classes

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Class 313, open floor if so.

 

[TrainBoy98]

Yep open floor it is then.

 

[221129]

Seeing as its open floor -

They are common all over England
They are also found in small numbers in Wales
Built early 90's
