About This File
This reskin represents the Class 170 Turbostar in TransPennine Express's "North Star" livery used since 2016. TransPennine Express's predecessor First TransPennine Express operated the Class 170s from 2006 to 2016, with 9 units previously used by South West Trains and Central Trains which have since passed onto Chiltern Railways and reclassified as Class 168s. However, the Turbostars never received the 2016 rebranded livery, so this reskin shows what they could've looked like if they stayed around. This reskin includes quick drive consists and destinations.
