Hull Trains Class 170 at speed...
Hmm, has this been painted from Connex livery back into NSE??

I thought it looked quite shiny :o) The paintwork must be quite durable as I used to work with vinyls on road vehicles and they were a bitch to remove.

Not repainted, as such, but de-vinyled.
The South Eastern units were delivered in NSE but soon vinyled with the Connex yellow.
Before entering service with WAGN, the units are getting a makeover at Doncaster works, involving the fitting of the new nose end, removing the pantograph cover, the Connex vinyls and any other branding in the train.
Interesting to see a TOC livery replaced with good old NSE!
As it is impossible to wash the roof of a unit under the wires, the WAGN units 365519-541 were delivered with black roofs - the ex-Connex units still retain white roofs but for how long?
No, the CSE vinyls have just been removed and the NSE livery (which was underneath before Connex applied the vinyls) has been tidied up a bit.
They're done with two pack paint, which is pretty tough stuff.
Isn't he an American Rap Artist?

You missed the 'c' off the beginning of one of the words there... ;o)

How can you use "Rap" and "Artist" in the same sentence?

You can use "con" and "artist" in the same sentence (e.g., this new Dennis who is about to take Fred to the cleaners).
Sorry, wrong group, but Roger knows what I'm on about.
Presunably that is art with a capital F
I always thought that a music discussion was pretty pointless as it's all completely in the ear of the beholder- there is absolutely no right or wrong, just opinion.
e.g., I happen to behold certain "rap artists" as good listening, but that's just my *opinion* of course.
Besides, are we not supposed to be discussing railways and derivatives thereof?
;-))
db.
Oh come on, you mean there's no link between music and railways? What about: Kraftwerk - Trans Europe Express The Farm - Groovy Train Eurythmics - Here Comes The Train Again (hmm, maybe not this one...)
Perhaps this would best be devoted to a thread of its own... preferably in /dev/null ;)
