Scottish HSTs head back north

01/10/2024

Two of ScotRail’s HST power cars have returned to Scotland, with 43128 taken by road from Loughborough to Haymarket on September 3, followed on the next day by 43169.

43128 has yet to work for ScotRail, despite being part of its fleet since 2019. Both were moved by road by Allelys.

Another locomotive on the move by road was 31190, which has been sold by its owner. It was collected from the Plym Valley Railway on September 4 and taken to Nemesis Rail at Burton-on-Trent.
