Title: Air conditioning on GWR's IETS Post by: GWR 158 on July 20, 2021, 18:19:05 Hi,
I know this sounds like a bit of a wacky question but what is the air conditioning like on GWR'S IETS? Title: Re: Air conditioning on GWR's IETS Post by: ChrisB on July 20, 2021, 18:30:38 It works.
If that’s not the answer you were looking for, you need to be more descriptive of ‘like’ Title: Re: Air conditioning on GWR's IETS Post by: IndustryInsider on July 20, 2021, 19:21:13 Usually pretty good, and just about the right temperature IMHO as it can be too cold on some trains as Class 180 Adelante users will probably remember!
As with all air conditioned trains, should you find it too hot in one carriage try another one as they are all separately controlled units. Even areas within a single carriage can be different temperatures as there are often different thermostat zones and controls. Not an IET but each GWR Class 165 units air cooling system has four separate control units and zones per carriage.
