(HD) A year of Paxman Valenta HST Footage from 2009 - Part 1 of 3

After being asked by a few people to upload some more of my HD Valenta footage, I choose to upload it all into one video, but this wasn't enough, this is part 1 of 3, and put all 3 combined thats 27:98mins of footage.
I have since found some more HD Valenta footage, so will make a part 4 when I've filmed some more, well the NMT and its 1 Val and Just Grand Central now :-(
The footage in this video was filmed between January and April.

For reference, only the East Midlands Train's videos, have one Val power car on the HST set. The other motive power, is a Paxman VP185.

very good video!

the HST yellow are a new private passenger company? what services do?

greeting

[KBRAILVIDEOS]

@argenvia Thanks. The Yellow HST is not a passenger train. It simply is filled with computers and measuring equipment. Each coach is specific for whatever measurements are checked. I do believe one is a mobile board meeting room. It is not for public use and is for measurements by Network Rail only and can go anywhere HST are allowed to go due to gauging issues. Hope this helps :)
