I actually loved to travel up front of a 60's DMU as the views were superb. You could see every loco coming and easily get the number of the steam engine. It was a great way to travel. I used to do it often from Lincoln to Newark Northgate, or Grantham for a shed bash, or to just spot on the ECML. Wonderful memories and mixed well with the last days of steam and early diesels. (I know the funny squared diesel thingies!) lol.
Had fun all the same.
Good stuff
Cheers
Phil
