Title: A day of older stuff Post by: grahame on June 24, 2023, 07:06:22 As they're fading out, yesterday was perhaps my last serious chance to travel on HSTs - posting here in "The Lighter Side" because it was very much a trip "off campaign" for me - not really promoting anything. During the day, 10 trains - pictures at each location I joined a train. The second picture, I admit, is from the previous week - a scramble to changed trains left me short of a picture.

Even if GWR HSTs nowadays operate with headcode 2xxx instead of 1xxx.
9 is the new waiting room on bleak eastern end of the long platform at Gloucester. Title: Re: A day of older stuff Post by: ChrisB on June 24, 2023, 17:39:41 7 & 8 are taken from/of Worcester Foregate Street & its semaphore signals
