Class 165 or 166?
editI have a photo of either a class 165 or 166 at Reading station, but I can't tell which it is. It might end in 215, which would make it a 166 - is there any way to tell them apart other than number? -mattbuck (Talk) 23:14, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
London and Thames Valley Refresh
editI will take some photographs of First Great Western refreshed Class 166 DMU trains in May and will also add more information on the refresh. --Peter Skuce (talk) 23:40, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
New images
editI have added some interior photographs of First Great Western Class 166 Express Turbos - the carpets and seats have been retrimmed into new moquette, however this was only a minor refresh. A more extensive refresh to also involve new carpets, repainted sanchlions & hand grabs, retrimmed seats in navy blue trim, new side panels, wall end coverings and revamped toilets is currently underway at Reading Depot. --Peter Skuce (talk) 00:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
