However they are run by different TOCs, the HSTs and 225s on NEXC are very similar, but the 170s were more designed for a town/city connecting service where passengers would change trains onto a more intercity style unit (e.g. 185 Chorley to Preston, then Pendolino Preston to Euston). It is odd that XC are operating an intercity based TOC using so very different DMUs, it would be like if Virgin took back some 158s and started operating them under their brand along with the 390s.
