Caught up with the 1730 BNS - Euston yesterday hauled (OK, pushed !) by 90028. What a refreshing change to ride on a REAL train !

Lots of room in the air carriages, large seats, seats which (almost) lined up with them, no rattling blinds, no beeping intercoms when people press the alarm button by mistake in the toilets, a toilet in every coach, buffet inbetween the first and standard class like it should be. I could go on ...

Return journey from Coventry was by a Virgin Voyager !

Photos to follow shortly ....

Thanks to all you folks who provided the details.
