I think it's smooth. LOL, That couple was incredibly straight forward. A lot easier than having a big gangway above it spoiling the sunlight and ruining the view

[89001avocet]

aye, fair point

[scottrules15]

ahhh!2 of the worst units in the history of railways joining together lOL!

[89001avocet]

Nah, they're not that bad; I'd have either over a cl.150!

[dmc1200]

I was on a Northern 150 the other day and the seats were so big and comfy I didn't want to get up. 150275, keep an eye out.

[89001avocet]

You git; that's the refurbished one!! :(

[TrainBusJaguar]

I saw that last week lol;

[89001avocet]

aww!! :(

[Yownanymous]

I like the way 158s couple: They squish each other's corridor!

[89001avocet]

Beg pardon! :D

[89001avocet]

I particularly like the way both units start bouncing around as soon as they couple-up! :D

[TheAmazingDannyKing]

They're Pacers, it comes with the territory? xD

[89001avocet]

Explain that one please?

[TheAmazingDannyKing]

Uhm, have you ever known a Pacer not to bounce around?

=/

[89001avocet]

Yes actually, had one down the ECML-link from Leeds to Wakefield...was pretty smooth :D

[TheAmazingDannyKing]

Meh. Last time I try rail related humor. =P

I defy any man who describes any kind of ride on a pacer as "smooth" even if the track is fairly good!

[89001avocet]

Go ahead! :D

[drp3pper69]

some goog stuff going on there

[89001avocet]

Thanks!
