Ugh sounds like the diesel version and the Bi-mode "in diesel mode" will be
another rattling bus of fun for three-hour journeys just like 170s, Voyagers

useful for Virgin as Branson has wake up The Hood to haul Pendolinos on
non-electrified sections. Electrifying more routes would be better I
think - and not just the London routes either. People do travel East-West!
