Unpopular opinion but I absolutely love the look of these trains!

[@mscangliarail]

Yes a very mixed opinions of the new stock thanks for looking

[@iman2341]

Strongly agree with you, they look fantastic! Especially when compared to the stock they are replacing!

[@practicallyfamous]

Same here, it looks spiffing if I do say so! ;)

[@emeraldzebra9360]

It's growing on me I won't lie,

[@CyclicPilot]

I for one am very excited to travel on these sometime soon. Articulated bogies, low engine noise in the carriages. It's a genuinely new and different way of designing a train.

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Iwan for visiting my site and your comments

[@g8ymw]

Self propelled Gresley quad-arts?

[@cmeonthemove]

A very good comparison of old v new at the end. Well filmed Mike.

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Chris a bit of luck with the156

[@andrewholloway231]

It certainly looks different. Yeah, its growing on me. What is important is that the Class 755 works right time, first time.

[@tjofficialtv7785]

Very nice looking train nice video

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks for looking comments are appreciated

[@noeldownie9367]

The power module is very clever and for use in different modes. Pity not built in the UK.

[@chrismoseley9235]

it is a pity, but the Swiss rail manufacturering industry had also been killed off and, as a half Swiss, I am glad that Stadler Rail is able to export and grow.

[@trainmanbob]

Very modern one has to say, but the power car in the middle? Thanks Mike for sharing. Cheers, Bob

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Bob appreciate your comments

[@PaulphotoeyeVideo]

A vast difference to what we have at Norwich at the moment. I filmed it at The engineering sheds. I am working there on the upgrade to accommodate these trains.

[@mscangliarail]

Yes a big difference to the present stock

[@petergarrett1852]

Great video.

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Peter appreciate your comment

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Peter glad you enjoyed it

Why does greateranglia logo exclude the dutch railways logo?

[@pantographproductions1888]

Great film!

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks I am glad you enjoyed it

[@EdgyNumber1]

Daft question: why only single double-door entry? Surely this might cause passenger congestion in busy rush hour periods?

[@autumnmatthews3179]

Not a daft question at all. I guess time will tell, it always does

[@audigex]

The 755s are mostly for regional routes, so they won’t really have much rush... but it’s also worth noting that these doors are wider than most of the units they replace, and that the cars are shorter so it’s not as bad as it looks

[@sarribel]

bombardier at derby, hitachi at newtown aycliffe and in the coming years both caf at newport and siemens at goole will be making the lion´s share of the uk trains and probably doing a great deal exporting some of the hardware

[@Travelling_about]

That’s a big gap between doors!

[@iman2341]

These are regional units, no need for a lot of doors.

[@nickyanagi8417]

The length of coach with shared bogies is shorter than the coach with its own bogies. Maybe that's the reason it decided to have only one door per coach. The middle two coaches are too short to have two doors, I think.

[@barboror]

Why are they walking in front of the train do they really need to do that?

[@vanillasplash6198]

i like it. EUPOPEAN DESIGN. NICE.

[@mscangliarail]

yes very mixed opinion to the 755 design thanks for looking

[@alejandrayalanbowman367]

Those who voted for Brexit won't like it

[@lfewell2161]

So many similarities with the APT just a bit slower.

[@cannedham8630]

Are these going to be used on the intercity/Stansted airport routes or is it to be used in local/commuter routes. Good video

[@mscangliarail]

Glad you liked the video

[@stephendines1936]

We really should be building our own Rolling stock in the UK.

[@TheHesK9]

We are and Greater Anglia have bought loads of them

[@dsintel6652]

That's slightly Xenophobic! What on earth is wrong with other countries manufacturing our trains?

[@stephendines1936]

We always used to make all of our own Rolling stock. British jobs for British people, what's wrong with that?

[@dsintel6652]

@Jamie-Lee Harley Thornton And by saying you want all rolling stock to be British is showing a dislike for foreign rolling stock!

[@EdgyNumber1]

Sorry Steve but when BREL was divested from govt control, other countries were building better stuff. More importantly they were exporting. BREL never did. Can't blame foreigners for crap British management and worker attitudes.

[@warnz9701]

The door thresholds look extremely low especially if you pause the video as the 156 passes.

[@welshmanjasonpatrick8607]

Trainsport for wales are get them trains new trains like that in next 4 years hope so

[@lamontcranston4436]

Dedicated power car should make for a better ride. Only need to look at HST vs Adelante to see the virtue of dedicated power cars. However, a lack of a buffet car is a sad loss and I rather suspect the spineboard seats of the Thameslink trains will also be on this train and they really aren't suited so travel beyond suburban routes.

[@tariqqureshi5813]

It runs on.what ? I don't see any cables

[@mscangliarail]

Hi Muhammad thanks for your interest there is a diesel unit as well as the overhead pantograph for working on electrified areas The diesel unit will work on the none electrified routes .Hope this answer your query Mike

[@rhysrobertstransportationa1668]

Looks like tfw trains

[@breeze1472]

where these trains gonna be used?

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks for your interest they are going to be used in Anglia Norwich to Lowestoft to Ipswich and London Norwich to Yarmouth /Norwich to Cambridge and Stansted Hence the bi model unit to enable them to run diesel or Electric hope this answered your question Overheads unit in the middle

[@breeze1472]

are these built in holland by any chance?

[@g8ymw]

Stadler is Swiss

[@Gadarinco]

Looking through the comments I can tell that the british have a weird taste in trains. This looks imo great but the car in the middle is a bit silly. People are saying also that the train looks very europish, is it a bad thing though?

[@mscangliarail]

Thank you for your comments the car in the middle is the diesel unit so the train can run on overhead electric or diesel which it makes it more versatile in Anglia Region

[@michaelleveyUK]

Looks weird with the Diesel engine pack in the model

[@mscangliarail]

Thanks Mike for looking but the diesel engine makes it more versatile for the Angian Region

[@alfietheg4m3r-robloxmore14]

Rip Greater angila class 321 and class 318

[@aaronarshad2903]

What is that small car with no windows

[@mscangliarail]

Hi Aaron that is the Diesel unit when not under the overhead wires

[@aaronarshad2903]

@@mscangliarail thank you for replying and telling me this I had always wondered about that... so it's kind of Convertible considering it requires overhead wires and the Diesel Unit?

[@petersmith4384]

@@aaronarshad2903 Its so it can go away from electrified track

[@aaronarshad2903]

@@petersmith4384 so basically it can go from Diesel to Electric? If so then i have to admit that's great

[@petersmith4384]

@@aaronarshad2903 They even say it can do the change on the move plus when doing turn round in Norwich Stn for the branch lines it can turn the engines off (there are 3 in the 3 carriage units and 5 in the 5 car version).

[@BulletNoseBetty]

Overall, not that bad in terms of looks, but one door on each side of each coach? What's the plan in an emergency?

[@mscangliarail]

The doors look as they are not as far apart as the mk3 thanks for looking good to get comments

[@BulletNoseBetty]

@@mscangliarail Are the gangways between the coaches full-width? Even if they aren't, that could be a "pinch-point". In an emergency, this could create a problem.

[@doomotron6160]

@@BulletNoseBetty One window on each side of each coach can be opened.

Don't get too excited.

[@cbvsjs]

What the fuck is that

[@alfiewhittaker3763]

looks so european also very odd with the diesel generator and shared bogies

[@soundseeker63]

It looks like something you would have seen on the German or Dutch railways circa 1990. Not nice. The tacky livery doesn't help. That said I'm sure they will provide a performance and comfort improvement over the class 15x, despite their rather offensive lack of design cohesion. The one door per coach design seems really stupid and will mean alighting/boarding will take forever in peak times!

[@thomasgriffiths3001]

One door on each side of each carriage is bad

[@petersmith4384]

Will keep them warmer/cooler in adverse weather

[@petersmith4455]

what an ugly design of a train. if you can call it a train .no window for the driver to open to look behind.big windscreen ideal for vandals to throw stones at.give us a break greater Anglia.bring back the class 86s and mk2d coaches.anyway whats wrong with the class 90 loco and coaches.they are doing the job

[@mscangliarail]

Why not bring back Steam and Mk1 coaches sorry this is 2019 and this was all said when Diesel replaced steam then electric replaced Diesel let us see the new trains running before condemning them thanks for watching my video much appreciated and the comments

[@inkyscrolls5193]

BLIMEY that is an ugly class. And I thought the 70s were bad. . .
