Hey guys this is a new trip report from myself. This is a trip report onboard one of Great Western Railways new class 800 Intercity Express Train.
I was traveling from London Paddington which is the terminus for the Great Western Main Line and was traveling to Cardiff Central the capital city of wales. My journey takes 2 hours and 8 minutes.
My thoughts on the new trains are that they are very well built to the touch and this can be seen from the design being very streamline and modern. The interior is well designed and it is interesting that it has been designed so that the quiet coach does not have an engine underneath it meaning it is a real quiet coach. The seats were firm however I didn’t realise this after about 50 seconds of being on these trains. All and all an excellent train built by hitachi well done
The Journey it self was very pleasent and the first class lounge at London Paddington was spectacular. Food on the train didn’t have a wide variety however the train journey was under 3 hours so it was a substantial amount.
I very much recommend traveling on these new trains in first class as it was worth the amount of money that I paid for my ticket.
