  • excellent as usual Rob...

  • Cheers for that Rob.

  • Lucky with us being now in a stage where we treasure what we create that one of the prototype hsts are actually stored, but sadly not preserved. Makes you proud to be British.

  • Yes I agree who would have thought that the Hst would still be around today.

  • @tantive4 I got a Valenta In my garage for sale.

  • get yer bloody head out man !

  • with this coming back into service next year wonder what stock its gonna have coz its gonna look very odd unless they repaint some stock to match the engine ?

  • Thank god they gave it a face lift!

  • @bwhugul Great to hear that the prototype will have an engine soon and a Valenta engine at that.

  • @faulcon1 The prototype should have an engine in it soon - it is hoped that it will start running again. Search "Project Miller".

    Currently there are no HSTs in service using the original Valenta engines - the final run was on 22 December 2010 from York to Sunderland. The return of the prototype to service would be a first time that a Valenta engine has operated in a HST since then.

  • @tantive4 Duh! Mk1, obviously

  • @Nathan83a Yep. It ran around with a specially BT10 fitted Mk10 before the buffet vehicle was delivered

  • See my earlier comment from 2 years ago, and it seems there are like minded people out there who think this locomotive should have an engine put back in it. According to a press release from the 125 group, and the NRM, this will happen soon folks,!!

  • @tantive4 Funny you should say that....
