Milepost 141.75 marks the position of this GWR HST as it approaches Bathpool at 15.02. This is the 2U22 14.56 Taunton to Cardiff Central stopping service. It's good to see that some HSTs, albeit in reduced formation, have been retained for these services, a great improvement on the use of Pacers and Sprinters. Now known by GWR as Class 255 "Castle" sets, we look forward to seeing their sides being graced with their new Castle-themed names. This is an unrefurbished set that will certainly be heading for Doncaster soon.
