Notebook & Pen Azuma Virgin Trains. 6×4″ / 10x15cm notebook and pen, with a photograph of a Virgin Trains Azuma Train unit, photographed at Newcastle Central Station. This photograph was taken in January 2018 when Virgin Trains were operating test units of their prototype Azuma trains on the East Coast Main Line.
The notebook has is spiral bound. The pages are lined and there is a flip over, protective plastic cover for the notebook. The included pen has black ink inside.
Virgin Trains no longer operate the East Coast Main Line route from London Kings Cross to Edinburgh, they were replaced by LNER, who brought the Azuma train unto full service. These trains have replaced both the 125 HST units and class 91 electric trains.
The Azuma train is designed and built by Hitatchi. With the components manufactured in Japan and assembled here in the UK. The trains ability to switch from electric to diesel power, allows it to operate on a much wider part of the rail network than the locomotives that it has replaced.
This photograph of the Azuma train in Virgin Trains livery is now something that we will not see again. We also have the same photograph on a fridge magnet, keyring and greeting card. A great little item for railway enthusiasts and train spotters.
