43301 Class 43 power car

            The Class 43 High Speed Train power cars were built between 1976 and 1982. The HST was the first train in the UK capable of operating at 125 mph and is widely regarded as one of the most successful trains ever built in Britain.

With its sleek lines, modern air-conditioned Mark 3 coaching stock and higher maximum speed, the HST revolutionised train travel.

After more than 40 years in the spotlight, most of the HST fleet has now been retired from main line service, although a few remain in use on passenger services in Scotland.Others have been exported to Mexico and Nigeria.

Colas Rail operated Class 43 HST power car No. 43301, seen here at Highley station during Severn Valley Railway’s Spring Diesel Festival on 16th May 2024, is still in use for a variety of specialist train movements.
