The 185 is certainly not suited to the route but then voyagers were hardly suitable either. My point really was that a route which most associate with 8 coach express trains gets 2 car (latter 3 car) trains for the stoppers and then runs them all the way to Nottingham, only to replace them with the only slightly more suitable Meridians, meaning that the 'Regional Express' service now provided by an Intercity operator is blighted by the 170s.

In reality, which is more suited to 170s, London to Nottingham, or Liverpool to Norwich?
