Class 156
9th July 2006

The Metro-Cammell-built class 156 Super Sprinters have been amongst the most successful 2nd generation DMU's and are currently operated by several train operating companies in all their hideous liveries. Here is a selection of pictures of these fine units including unit 156502, which in 1989 went all the way to Holland and back under its own power.
