    InterCity Swallow returns. Apart from 91119, I've never seen a full set in it's original InterCity Swallow. It looks...... Beautiful is one of many words to describe it :-)

    I'm absolutely blown away by this. My first train set in 1994, was the class 91 intercity 225 in the swallow livery. its hands down the best, most striking livery ever. Being from Dublin, Ireland, it was even the most striking here, Some 28 years later, i will be travelling on this set with LNER, 1st class, in 2023. Thank you so much LNER, for understanding how trains made people feel, making once a boy, now a man, but still making a boys dream come true by bringing this livery back into service.

    Wow that looks great on the 91 and I bet it will look absolutely STUNNING on a full Mk4 set...Can't wait to see these in service!!
    The original IC swallow livery was always a winner and I like that they haven't messed with it too much, just a few subtle tweaks for LNER. It's classy but also 80s/90s retro cool at the same time, love it! The Mk4 sets are still a pleasure to travel on (better than the Azumas IMO).

    @stephenpiesse2870 2 года назад

    They should put the Intercity Swallow & name back on them. I think they should bring back the Intercity brand across the whole network, rather than having so many different brands. I understand it's in private ownership, but if you look back to the days of Intercity, Network Southeast & Regional the branding was easy & simple and surely easier for international & national passengers to understand and use.
