A journey from Reading to Padd on a newly re-introduced Adelante service, this was the 14:26 GMV-PAD (the return journey of the 11:20 PAD-GMV). If you listen carefully to our departure from Reading (ignoring the auto announcer), you can hear the driver cycling the throttle trying to get away. I later found out this was due to one of its diesel engines playing up, and it was the only way he could get drive! Good old reliable Adelantes eh!! On this day it was just the one unit running, I'm led to believe they are returning a total of 5 units over the coming months. Recording on iPhone 4S @ 1080p.
