Transport for Wales 'NEW' Class 769 FLEX Review - Rhymney Valley Line

Hello, and welcome back to another train trip report on my channel.

In this video I will be travelling on-board a Transport for Wales Class 769 'FLEX' from Penarth to Rhymney.

These units were the first to enter service of Porterbrook's much delayed conversion project of the Class 319 to run on diesel. They come in two variants, the diesel ones (these TFW units), and bi-mode ones that run on diesel and electric (Northern and GWR).

The journey today is from Penarth to Rhymney, one of Cardiff's commuter lines on the so-called Valley Lines network. The units have been partly responsible for replacing the Class 142 and Class 143 'Pacer' units, so it's interesting to see what the future is like for these routes.

Enjoy the video. :)
