The first and the last HST passing at speed in this video seem to have a different sound to the others... Is it because of the different engines used?
Fantastic!
Thanks for posting.

@4fsake Some HST's in early 2008 still had the old Paxman Valenta engines (the ones producing the high screaming sound), but most were fitted with the new MTU engines. The transition from Valenta to MTU was taking place at the time, hence the varying sounds of the HST's recorded here.
Thanks for commenting!

@4fsake Furthermore, this transition was taking place on the National Express (now East Coast) HST sets - the only full valenta powered HST here was the Grand Central set (the black one shooting through on the centre road).
