It's okay to be excited for new trainsets. Yes, these should be electric instead of bimode, yes Amtrak routes need a lot of work to be world class rail, yes we absolutely shouldn't consider this to be the final peak of American railroading BUT this is a major step over existing rollingstock.

Just got back from a trip to the Outer Hebrides, first leg of the journey was by this Azuma bimode train (seen here at Inverness) from Peterborough, the journey especially north of Newcastle upon Tyne is a scenic delight. #Trains

So here I am FLIRTing with the Stadler bimode EMU. I guess.

Three car on the juice is the fastest, of the Bimode combinations.

Here’s a new bimode EMR train. It’s in diesel mode in Nottingham of course as they will never electrify the midland mainline properly. Photo taken while waiting for the current generation diesels to take me to St Pancras.

And here we see the true purpose of the bimode

The Government has announced that 29 new battery-electric trains will be built in Derby, to run between key destinations in the north of England. Here's our reaction.

EMR is replacing its 222s with bimode class 810s and Grand Central has an order for trimode (electric/battery/diesel) class 820s (all IET variants) so that should make Kings Cross and Euston diesel free by 2028.

And that's a bit of a problem, because the fleet on it needs renewing relatively soon, it's pretty obvious buying diesel trains is a non-starter and no one wants a diesel/battery bimode on third rail. And then there's the infra' questions...

Certains sont bimodes, et circulent en électrique 1,5kv entre Lyon et Neuville où ils démarrent le moteur diesel.
Mais il faut qu’ils soient bimode-bicourant (série 82500 4 caisses) pour être aptes au 25kV entre St Germain DF et Clermont.
