Nicely done Morgan....memorable words indeed and very well said Champ. In these days of over blown celebraties and sport stars it's good to see a "true " Welsh legend, and thousands like Sultan who spent much of their lives underground being remembered in this way. Keep up the good work MD.
It's all very nice having trains with names but all the traveling public want is a decent reliable train service. I think their focus should be in that direction rather than this vanity nonsense.
Have you travelled on these new units yourself ? They're Swiss build/design and travelling from Penarth to Rhymney was a delight. The naming was a good PR exercise
Nicely done, and congratulations to all concerned! 👋

Always nice to see a naming ceremony. Trains might be lifeless compared to yesteryear but it's still good to have some pride in them.
A bit different to the 143s Mike.
