Class 700 Interior Details
In January 2014 we displayed photographs of mock-ups of the interiors and certain external features when on display at Excel Docklands. The publicity launch and subsequent inaugural run on 24th May 2016 presented the opportunity to record details of the real thing. This is the first of three pages of interior details of unit 700109, for exterior details please click here. all photographs are by Richard Whitbread, unless otherwise credited |
