    I feel like the B series only arrived on the Freo line a few years ago, might have to go out of my way to check these new ones out.

    So my oldest is obsessed with trains. We just got back from going out to catch this train. Seriously: we caught a train to Perth, found out when the C-Series was coming (in 90 minutes), hung around until then and finally caught the thing to Whitfords and back.

    It was fine. A train is a train as far as I’m concerned. The best bit about it was that he got to meet about a dozen other train-obsessed kids.

        Somewhere between a Comeng and an Xtrapolis. Nicer than either inside. Some content about it here if you are interested.

        Edit: whoops, I thought I was replying to @Baku for some reason. I used Melbourne trains as a reference. Yep, it’s more snub-nosed than the other trains on our lines, but not much more so than the A series.
