New Look for Avanti 221s

            Avanti West Coast are pressing ahead with their plans to re-livery the Class 221 fleet. No. 221 115 was first, a few weeks ago, which due to pressures on the fleet had to be released into traffic with an 'untidy' front end as the outline of the previous 'Virgin' badge was still clearly evident. Now No. 221114 has been re-liveried with a 'perfect' front end paint job. It is seen descending the 1-in-100 bank from Wall to Shenstone on 28th February 2021 in company with classmate No. 221110, still in 'Virgin' colours while forming 5D83 0927 Barton-under-Needwood RSMD - Crewe ECS. Luck played a hand, as the train was running nearly 30 minutes late due to a problem around Lichfield Trent Valley Junction, and running along the Cross City Line instead of its booked route down the Lichfield Chord and then along the Trent Valley Line.
