What's your favourite type of DMU/s if you have one? Mines the 158 in Express Liv.

101's and 117's can't beat the classic's which let you see where you were going though the drivers cabs

Definantly not a 142 pa*er however they are the worst dmu's built.

Personally, a Calder Valley 110 is the best. Beats all this modern rubbish, where you can see nothing outside

hmm i have a few fav ones... cant pic my overall fav..

142, 150, 158, 175

i think 142 is the best. gives u more sounds for the railway and its the train that ive been on the most since i was born! they older than me

150 because they are big and used alot by FNW

158 is near silent plus i got a 00 Gauge FNW 158 by Bachmann model.

175 cause it is silent and smooth running...

SWT's Class 159's are quite nice. I haven't been on a Turbostar, but they seem quite good too.

101s are another of my favourites, so I would stick with 101s and 175s. 156s arent bad either.

101s, 150s, 156s, 158s or 175s. I think my overall favourite would be the 175. Sometimes unreliable (although FNW are getting better at this) and very comfortable and a smooth ride.

The automated annoucements get annoying after a while though.

105 Carvens units, park roylas, and the 128 Trans pennine stock, speaking of which, watch out for a new one soon!
