I don't know about you... but I'd go for an Adelante or a Mallard any day (in fact I'll be going for a Mallard to Darlington on Thursday - back on Monday evening!) But the good old slam-doors are nice - although rather loud when the locomotive passes by!

Ah yeah... Adelante's are nice. Had the pleasure of riding on one to Torquay. More room than the Virgin Voyagers in fact.

Shame FGW don't own more of them.....

No Class 91 foot pumps to use the water in the bathroom.
