Southwest trains operate 159 trains on West of England Main Line and they operate their 158s on the Eastleigh to Romsey Line. Sometimes they send 159 services from Salisbury to Bristol or Portsmouth. These trains are reliable, comfortable and quick. Southwest trains upgraded their fleet so the interior is so much nicer than a typical northern rail 158. Southwest trains use Richmond style seating instead of Chapman (Richmond is a lot nicer). They're fully carpeted and are constantly maintained to a high standard. Please tell me, why can't northern rail achieve this? Not only do Northern rail have the oldest fleet out of all the operators, they rarely clean their trains and don't look after the interiors. If they're going to have older trains the least they can do is take care of their interiors on them.
