MANCHESTER PICCADILLY: 86406
@miles_chains posted a great shot of the Royal Scot Pendelino a day ago in more or less this spot. Whilst the Pendelino might have a shot at the APT's record, and the 86/4 would surely get us there, sadly there would be no record set speedwise in the process!

Wait they made Preston a city?

I know the bus station is iconic, but really?

Enjoyed this on the idiocy of Labour continuing to kick its own voters (perhaps Starmer really is very bad at politics 🤔) and the tortured logic behind claims of sectarian voting. substack.com/@pendelino/n...

If any London based rail enthusiasts happen to be at Paddington today at about 11.56 around platform 7, you may notice an Avanti Pendelino, 390016, making an appearance. No idea why.

From the North West to London, featuring a classic view from the train...

Homeward bound on the pendelino! #TFIFriday

Not in the slipstream of a speeding Pendelino anyway 🙂

Merkwürdige Wagen-Kompositionen. 😁
Und weil gestern wenig Zeit war, noch das obligatorische Pendelino-Bild.

Managed to get buggy storage this time on an Avanti West Coast Pendelino thanks to a chat with one of their train managers a few weeks ago who gave us a tip on which coaches are best for storage.

Am Abend noch eine kleine Schifffahrt. Hübscher Sonnenuntergang und dank kurzer Sporteinlage vom Fähranlager zur Tram sogar (unerwartet) gerade noch geschafft, Gepäck zu holen und zum Zug. 😴 #Helsingsfärja

Stattdessen geht meine allererste Fahrt mit :vr: direkt zum eigentlich Ziel von #Helsingsfärja Ein paar mal (3 früh morgens und 3x nachmittags, merkwürdiger Fahrplan, ja!) täglich ist nämlich von Vasa aus kein Umstieg nötig. Allerdings ist es mir etwas zu voll […]

Recommend the Avanti Pale ale "Tilting". Very tasty, and a nice Pendelino reference too.

Bye bye Scotland (for now 😉) and
welcome to this Avanti West Coast service to: London Euston. We will be calling at Haymarket, Carlisle, Oxenholm Lake District, Lancaster, Preston, ...
That must be the first Pendelino that didn't make me sick. After breakfast […]

The Lake District appears as the train speeds towards the Lune Gorge. Great Pendelino effect.

Always forget how awful the Avanti West Coast pendelino trains are for being too hot and too tilty and causing a mild travel sickness in me until I'm on them. Note to self: stop using them!

Me too, though I do like the Pendelino, recently rode one from Euston to Manchester, great trains. 👍

29 years ago, it was part of British Rail, which developed the APT. On privatisation, the APT was sold cheap to Fiat, only to then be bought by some private rail companies as the Pendelino at far higher price. The British public paid twice for that train. It could have made a tidy return for BR.

So, I'm going to be doing the Brighton to Victoria line, split between the class 700 and 377 because there's no longer an option to do that journey solely on the 377.

If it does well next video would be the Pendelino Euston to Birmingham New Street, the train and route I got married on.

On an Avanti "tilting" Pendelino to London that will apparently operate in non-tilt mode with a max speed of 110mph......along with a delayed arrival. Great👍.
At least the TM has been honest upfront.

The Pendelino originally had an option of putting your name on the reservation screen (instead of station from/to) & to test it they filled it with names from the project team. It was a surprise one day to see it reset as we got into Euston & see work colleagues' names flash up...

Kleiner Höhepunkt für mich Soft Train-Geek in 2015 1. Fahrt in New Pendelino von Krakow nach Warszawa
January 24, 2025 at 6:49 PM
It used to be the 142, maybe now the Pendelino because of the toilet smell.
