And from Birmingham to Durham, I am taking a class 220 Cross Country DMU. It’s somewhat stunted, with only 4 out of the 6 cars, and no catering car, but otherwise seems to be powering along nicely.
First class is comfy, but the 2-person side of the 2+1 configuration is staggered differently to the windows. Also, the overhead racks are barely large enough to fit my backpack onto, and there is very little luggage space.
On the upside, there is a wheelchair space in First Claas, which is far from commonplace.

And I’ve been Bahned (or rather, according to the earlier poll, Nationally Railed) in Darlington, where the Train manager made an announcement about 5 minutes out saying the train will terminate here. We’re now waiting for the next train on the same platform, which is about 5 minutes away, which will continue on to Glasgow via Durham and Newcastle.
…oh, wait, we’re now doing a mass move to platform 1
