Although not perhaps the best of dmus. I thought it would be good to have a feed for photos and videos of this dmu which we have had in our lives for a good few years now. Any photos and videos please feel free to post. 
 

here to start are some photos from today of a voyager set on hemerdon bank

Yeah that’s the one. It’s been a few years since I’ve been to didcot. Thinking probably near on ten years now. Last time I was there was when tornado visited the heritage centre.

Anyone for a 2-car Voyager?

The "spare" driving cars of 221144 at Crewe in 2011 - they were used for staff training purposes.

The two inner vehicles were used to make up two of the other 4-car 221s to 5-car sets.

Apparently they were not allowed out under their own power as some of the critical systems are carried on the inner vehicles of the set.

The driving cars don't have compressors. If they did, then running a 2 car would be feasible, although voyagers are short enough as it is!
