You know I applied for a job with this company and I have to say even though I didn’t get it this time I was treated like a true human being ,I’ve never had such fantastic response and kindness from a company all others take note ,fair play to the team at Derby,it was the case of one job lots of applicants but I got down to the last few ,all the best to you all ,Mark 👍🏻😊

my local station is on MML and im so exited to see the new livery through it

[@benjewell2909]

At the beginning of the video, the rail line starts at London and goes through Leicester, Derby, Sheffield and then further on to Nottingham. Has anyone looked at a map?

that is just exactly the same as EMT BUT EMT IS BETTER THE LIVERY IS HORENDOUS

I don’t think I’ve ever been on an EMR train, as I do not travel be rail that much, however I do see EMR services pass regularly and they do look good. I have heard mostly good reviews from others so I think over the past 3 years EMR has done a great job improving from what East Midlands Trains used to do. Can’t wait to see some of these new high speed trains come into service in the New Year!

Will the journey time between Ely and Liverpool LS be cut with the introduction of new trains? At the moment, it’s far cheaper and quicker to drive.

‘Replacement of All diesel Trains by December 2022” It’s April the 8th 2023 and nearly all of the East Midlands is on Diesel 😊. Edit: Also can I ask Why The Norwich - Liverpool train is operated by EMR regional? I believe this should be an EMR intercity operation

[@jetpigeon8758]

I was on the 20:02 train from London St Pancras to Sheffield with my wife, on the 4th September 2021. Just as the train was in the vicinity of Luton the ticket inspector walked through the carriage saying "Tickets Please" , as the ticket inspector asked a lady for her ticket, she just stared at him, and he asked again, she then switched on her phone to show him the ticket, he immediately noticed that it was a ticket for her and her Son (aged approximately 8) but it was a single ticket from Derby to London St Pancras, the ticket inspector pointed out that she must show him the return ticket back to Derby, and she did not have one. The Train manager was called for, and she pointed out that to travel she would need a return ticket for both herself and her Son. Now I was observing this woman facial expressions, and it was obvious that she was just trying it on. The Train Manager was told by the woman that she thought that a single ticket from Derby to London automatically included the return YEAH RIGHT!! She was told that in the future she must buy a return ticket. So the lady and her Son got away without paying, They should have enforced the penalty fare rule and if she didn't pay then she should have been removed from the train at Leicester. The reason she got away with it, well you may have guessed why, she was a lady of colour, and EMR do not want to be classed as racists, anyone else would have had to pay the penalty fare.

[@masterbrickbuilder2971]

What will you do with the LNER HSTs

[@Andrewjg_89]

Maybe some will be cascaded to Crosscountry, some to ScotRail and LNER might retain some HSTs.

[@jackharrington8114]

It sounds like EMR regional , intercity, turbostar, and electrics are interesting

[@Gusest2676]

EMT was the successor

[@Andrewjg_89]

Gusest2676 yes but Stagecoach lost the franchise and Abellio won the contract. That’s why East Midlands Railway was born. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Midlands_Trains en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Midlands_Railway

[@NorthWestElectrics]

What will you do with the HST’s once you receive them from LNER, I Mean, When will they all become EMR-ified and When IEPs enter service will the HST’s be replaced by them? Will 222s and HSTs be replaced and When do you think all the trains will be purple? As 158s are sorta debranded, also great trailer! - Jaden

[@Stephen.Dixon01]

125s will stay in the current colours with EMR logo added

Where will the 222's go after they get replaced?

I reckon they may be leased to XC although XC are going to get some more of LNERs HSTs and some of AWCs 221 when they get their 800s/802s

[@Andrewjg_89]

Good question about the Class 222s. EMR might retain the 4-Car and 5-Car Class 222s and to use them on regional routes (including Nottingham-Norwich). And the 7-Car Class 222s cascaded to Crosscountry. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_222

[@carailphotography]

Why on earth are you replacing class 222s with 180s, knowing that the 180s are prone to breaking down? I hate how new operators always replace the stock to make them look busy I mean come on there's nothing wrong with the stock, the HSTs, yes they're over 40 years old, but they still work and deliver comfortable experiences, something which the new intercity trains won't, as with my experience in GWR, the seats are like ironing boards and not comfy for long distances at all. Also the 222s, yes they may be a little bit on the tight side but again, they work!!! And as for IETs if another franchise puts an order in for them, I'm moving to Europe lol theyll be more variation in Europe than in the UK

[@broken_2709]

I think the 222s are fine, all they need is a bit of paint.

[@paulmacfarlane899]

Is this anything to do with the leasing of the class 222s? I am sure I read that the lease on them is up around 2022- although I could be wrong!

[@gilesscanlon2586]

@@broken_2709 is it true that the HSTs are getting withdrawn in December this year ?
