Thank you for the wonderful video. I'm a Japanese person who loves trains. I have a few questions. Are Intercity 225 trains still in operation? Haven't they all been replaced with new Hitachi trains? If I want to ride an Intercity 225 train, how can I find out about it? I live far away in Japan, so I'm in trouble because there is very little information available. Please let me know.
Thank you for the nice comment, The intercity 225 still have a few years to retire until some of the CAF tri-mode sets will take over. So you should be ok at the moment.
@scottishtrainspotter7209 I don't think you can select a seat from the seat map on the LNER booking site, but is there a way to find out in advance which trains use InterCity 225?
Better than the replacements
It was nice getting on them again other than the 800 Azuma's.

@scottishtrainspotter7209 Thank you for your reply. Is 225 still in service as a regular express train, not a special train?
@@kuwa-maru Still in in service.

@@kuwa-maru Yes on their website by LNER themselves.
It will be sad when they are gone.
It will indeed, great iconic trains.
Don't know why your speedo was in km/h !! This is England dear boy, MILES per hour !! 🙄
Must have forgotten to change or something.
