@HitchinTrains well the hst our bad but the smaller unit arn't so bad more room than the hst's last time i went on the fgw hst it was jam packed people had to stand by the door no im sure thats a saftey hazard

My fav train and i dont know why people are complaining about the seats, like arm rest and seat tables, they used to be bus seats !!!!!!!, thats a refurbished one as well

[BriWayne]

I had this unit several times whilst down in the south west of england =D

despite the lack of arm rests and 4 seat areas they are decent units

[WrongRoadRailways]

I think they could at least put tables in the back of seats!

[BriWayne]

yeh i said exactly the same thing when i first went on one back in august

though i really don't think it would be a good idea to put a hot drink down on one

could be quite painful when it starts bouncing around

Where was this filmed?

[video47]

From Newton Abbot to Paignton, the Paignton line branches off at Newton Abbot from the main line between Exeter and Penzance.
