Title: HST working the 1512 Bristol Parkway-Weston Super Mare last Saturday Post by: XPT on April 04, 2011, 23:03:58 I noticed on Saturday when at Bristol Parkway, that the 1512 service to Weston Super Mare was an HST which was a bit of a surprise, as usually it's a 143 or 150. Any particular reason why an HST was used on this service?

See http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=8652.0 Rather more seriously: I suspect it may simply have been because that HST was all that was available ... :-X Title: Re: HST working the 1512 Bristol Parkway-Weston Super Mare last Saturday Post by: Toiletdriver on April 20, 2011, 01:53:24 Sprinter was nicked at 1440 to strengthen the 1449 Weymouth.
