Description
Hello! Today I continue my new series - Vanmanyo Reviews - where I review train journeys I take, ranking them on several factors and calculating a total score at the end of the video for that journey (as a percentage). Today was the turn of the XC class 170 between BHM - NUN ; so how good are these DMUs?

*1 - Free seats is measured by how many free seats were available on that particular journey which may vary with date and stock used.
*2 - Catering may be different to what is normally available but is measured on what catering facilities were available when I went on that journey.
*3 - Cost is measured by price per minute of travel.
*4 - Toilet rating is measured by the cleaniless and functionality of the specific toilet looked at (not filmed in today's case).
