This is an inside tour of an London Midland Class 170/5 DMU which works on some London Midland Network
Class 170's are a development of the design used in the British Rail Class 165, 166 and 168 DMUs known as the Networker Turbos which were built by BREL and later ABB Transportation Ltd before that company eventually became part of Bombardier
London Midland has 170501 - 170517 and were built between 1999--2000
Sorry about the editing, when i was filming there were times i had to stop and wait and the person in the mirror is me!
I want them to replace the class 150 on the Marston vale line

They remind me of a cross between a 150 and a 158 -- a 158 with that narrow vestibule, sliding doors and seat layout, and a 150 with the exit/entrance doors positioning and interior fittings. Couldn't get a catering trolley through that though.
