East Midlands Railway 180113/222011 (26.03.2022)

Side-by-side DMU's with a difference!

180113, a five car class 180 'Adelante' DMU built by Alstom and part of the Alstom Coradia fleet of trains that also includes the class 175, is seen at Nottingham on platform 7 having just brought in a service from London St Pancras whilst 222011, a five car class 222 'Meridian' DMU built by Bombardier and part of the 'Voyager' family that also includes the class 220 and class 221, makes preparations on platform 6 for the 16:12 service to London St Pancras. Now all of the HST stock is no longer present on the Midland Mainline, the class 222's and class 180's are now working together on the Midland Mainline, with two 180's out of the four in the fleet on some dedicated diagrams, mainly on weekdays and Saturdays, with a healthy amount of 222's on most of the other services.
