Maverick

Maverick is a Class 390 Pendolino who works on the West Coast Mainline in the UK.

Bio
Maverick is one of the first Class 390s to be built for the West Coast Mainline, entering service in 2002 and only having a few problems since. His life is mostly uneventful but he has been involved in a few interesting situations now and again.

Personality
Maverick is one who likes to show off. He rarely gets the chance to do so anymore, but when he does get the chance he likes to make it worth it.

Livery
When Maverick first left the place where he was built he wore the standard Virgin Trains livery, featuring silver body-sides with black areas around the windows, red roofs and red cab-sides. The red areas on the cabs were separated from the silver with a curved white band. With Maverick being one of the first 53 of the original sets he was also given a cast nameplate in a standard style bearing the word "PENDOLINO" on the top of his nickname. However in September 2017 he was repainted by the new Alstom facility in Widnes into the current livery known as "flowing silk", featuring plain white body-sides, black roofs and a vinyl applied red swoosh around the driving cab intended to visually represent a moving piece of silk. He also had his cast nameplate removed upon repaint, with his nickname being reapplied in the form of a vinyl sticker. On the side note, all of the Class 390's to receive this treatment didn't like it one bit. Maverick was no different.

Basis
Maverick, along with all of the other Class 390's, are based off of the Class 370 APT.
