The HST's are over 30 years old and still going strong
The Pendos will be breaking down VERY SOON

The HSTs are definately the best sounding (Valenta, not MTU)
I do like HSTs but they arent my favouriteLiam please tell me what you been smoking? The best UK train of all time has to be this one:

I like that train and I like that green, I just hate that rust.
The Japanese Bullet Train (Shinkansen) Series 700? It so does not look like a duck! Do you see Yellow on the bill... No! You should never insult this train in front of me! It's one of my favorite trains next to the N700!

That doesn't change the fact that it is hideous and physically painful to look at.
Also, regarding the lack of yellow on the "bill":

See, I told you.naw..the 700 and N700 look more like a platypus than a duck.
The N700 has better lines than the 700.
The Renfe Talgo makes up for it by looking like a stomped duck.

Roo, there were only ever 6 of those locomotives built. Believe it or not, they're rated at around 5000hp.
Doesn't excuse them from needing rhinoplasty! :hehe:

It looks like an RDC but with a new cab.
Or maybe an Amtrak car with a cab built onto it.
After a little research; I found out that Budd released to "demo" SPV 2000 units one with the "streamlined" front (seen above) the other with the standard metroliner front. for obvious reasons Amtrak bought the non-streamlined one. The nose adds really nothing additional, just "aesthetics"

Like a boss.
The ugliest trains I've seen are definitely from here in Northern Ireland.
The old 3-car (sometimes 5, occasionally 7) "suburban" trains that shuttled from Dublin to Portrush/Londonderry. Passenger trains of course, it's rare to see anything else in N.I; perhaps the (very, very) occasional blue "works" locomotive.
Unfortunately, try as I have, I just can't find an image of them.
They have recently been replaced by shiny new, yet equally ugly, 3, 5 or 7-car trains.
Absolutely no character at all; imagine dull coloured boxes on wheels and you're close enough...
