British Rail Class 220 'Voyager' Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) 220010 with the 1V60 08:20 (13:40 RT) Aberdeen- Penzance Cross Country Trains service train at York Station on the East Coast Main Line in North Yorkshire (UK).
Is this the longest distance and time service train in the country? The train arrived at Penzance at 21:41 some 2 minutes early.
Note the Dellner type coupling system at the front of the train. The Dellner Coupling is a version of the Scharfenberg coupler which connects pneumatics and electronics at the same point of contact.
The energy absorption technology in a Dellner Coupling allows collisions at speeds of up to 9 mph with no structural damage and up to 22 mph with deformation while the carriages remain on track.

The W140 series chassis has been described as the last Mercedes to be deliberately over engineered. It also means it will become one of the classic cars designed by Mercedes.
For some reason this W140 S class has a very rare colour. I havent seen any other green MBs like this one on the web.

The 442s were originally introduced in 1988 by Network South East and were based on the Mk3 carriages. In Feb 2017 they were withdrawn from the Gatwick Express services and stored. They were due to be re-introduced at the end of 2018 but after various technical issues and a few false starts they were re-introduced as refurbished units in early Jan 2020.
The Class of 1948 held their 65th Class Reunion at Tavern 59 at the Pebble Lake Golf Course on Thursday, July 18, 2013.

The model class 150/1 is a repainted standard Bachmann offering.
The model has been backdated to as delivered condition by moving the air horns and adding a battery box under the driver's window.
The original valances have been rebuilt with Evergreen strip. Finally a driver figure has been added and the destination blind altered to suit my model.
A light weathering in due course will complete the model.
