Sooo, 805005 is the first to make it into AVT colours and one of my viewers has commented that instead of being known as an Azuma, these should be known as a Nishikaigan to reflect the Japanese pronouncation of West Coast - further more - having looked into this further, I think the 805s would actually be ''Nihosei no Nishikaigans'' or slightly abbreviated .... '''Nihosei Nishi's'' reflecting these being Bimodal West Coast-ers in Japanese. The 807s should be ''Nishikaigans'' or just Nishi's for short ... sooooo this is what I am going to go with ... moving forward ... after all ... all trains have nicknames ...
