- A mix of trains passing through the Didcot Parkway and Chlosey area.
Can Anyone identify the network rail HST? More to the point, are they valenta HSTs? They certainly sounded like them. Unfortunately i didnt anticipate it travelling through that platform.
NMT is 43013 leading and 43062 on the back. 13 didn't have the "Head of Examination, Chief Engineers dept" behind the cooler.
greatest trains on network rail by far I also miss the old paxman engines they were great, you would get a moul of smoke and then screaming of the 125 as it leaves a station.
Gr8 to see them running smooth, and without noise, and fast. One cannot believe that they are run on Diesel Locomotive. Hard to believe that they are compatible to Electric Locomotives in terms of speed and smoothness.
Nice vid. The long shots at 3:30 are very original. Nice one buddy
It may bee quite old but I love it!
this video is sweet and good filming well done 5* and it is mental when HST'S go though at 125 it.
Thanks, HSTs are a definite favourite of mine. Shame they'll be gone in a few years.
fantastic video
Amazing
Nice video.
Please can you tell me what company runs the all yellow HST's? (1:52 )
And why would they be on that line if First Great Western operate on that line?
Thankyou
If you're still on your account, Network Rail run the Yellow HSTs for testing, hope this helps
Well Explained, thankyou
HSTs best trains ever,these do 140mph between Swindon and Didcot and Reading,brilliant video by the way,you like to be close to the action.
+Mark Tyrrell Me and my uncle travelled on one from Chippenham to London paddington and we had a speedometer hanging out the window and in parts between Swindon and Didcot it was going at 143 mph.
+The HSTdude Maybe he was late? ;) They are certainly capable of those speeds. but they are not allowed. If they were, they shouldn't have been.
+Jos Anoia' *hst's
why do class 43's look like they are going 50mph faster than a voyager or pendelino at max speed, also love the buzz of the 66's
Network Rail own and operate the yellow HST. Its known as the NMT (New Measurment Train) It uses a variety of complex computer and recording equipment to monitor and report track qaulity. It travels all over the network. First Great Western only "hire" track space via track access charges from NR as NR own all the track!
No problem.
If you copy this into the the search box, you'l get a good on board video of it in action.---
The New Measurement Train.
I used to be part of a team that would respond to faults it picked up. Not any more though!
cheers, much appreciated :)
they go so fast
there isnt an intercity 125!
