They are the best units left anywhere in the British Isles. The last old school diesel-electric multiple units left anywhere, and will still be running for a couple more years at least. Many happy memories of Hastings line and other SR DEMUs, which were mechanically identical. I go to Northern Ireland a couple of times a year, and always make time for a spin on these fantastic trains on the Larne line, where they still work all services. Thrash, clag, the whole super-thumping shebang!
The enterprise train is a loco hauled train

Apart from the Enterprise and Gatwick express, there aren't any locomotive-hauled trains on NIR metals much anymore.

Aye but still, those 150 style DMUs are pretty hellfire.
