But a Clubman is a...well a train...a "normal" (may i say this
) train.
A pendular train can be a great experience I think.... no ?
A pendy is a great experience. When your stepping off of it
Basically no, Pendys are nothing special. So they tilt. Wow. You can hardly notice it. Makes no difference to most people.
Now if you want to feel as if you have had an experience, then go with Chiltern and get one of the loco hauleds. The ex WSMR Mk3s make you feel like you are travelling in style.
The pendys just make it seem as though you are travelling in a plastic uncomfortable can.
To show you how amazing pendys are. First class in a pendy is worse than standard class on an ex WSMR Mk3.
Even a 168 is more pleasurable than a pendy, even though the underfloor engines make them noisier.
Oh, and yes clubmans are normal trains. By this do you mean pendys are abnormal? Youd be right there, but not in a good way!

Go for the 390. Not just saying that because I like them, but like I said for the experience. Its a lot more exciting than trundling away on a 168 with my nan on a zimmerframe overtaking you acceleration wise....
What experience is this? The tilt is nothing special, unless perhaps speeding through the lowlands, and the acceleration? I can honestly say it never gave me any wow factor. I hardly noticed it. I only notice it on the 395s because they are noisy and rough riding.
However yes, ive now changed my mind, i think the pendy should be used. All these people slate New Street. Here is one person who is about to say how brilliant it is. The relief on getting there will make the station seem amazing.
