Sad to hear of the passing of Sir Kenneth Grange, designer of so much, from the Kenwood Chef to the HST/InterCity125 cab. Here's my Chef, 60 years old and still going strong.
A picture taken while spending a month travelling on European rails with an #InterRail#BritishRail#InterCity125#HST#Plymouth 🇬🇧 station.
12/08/2023 43366 "HST 40" at the business end of 1V44 Leeds to Plymouth at Sheffield. This powercar has been exported to Nigeria. #highspeedthursday#crosscountryhst#highspeedtrain#brel43366#intercity125
I travelled on a ScotRail 🏴 #Intercity125#HST earlier today. These highspeed trainsets already served destinations in Scotland years back: this timetable leaflet is from 1978. I picked it up at a train station back then, when holidaying in the UK 🇬🇧 for the first time as a teenager.
Next leg today: #Aberdeen#Edinburgh#BritishRail#InterCity125#HST#ScotRail#Inter7City#DiningCar here on the train but there is a buffet counter … which is closed. A trolley service provides some catering instead.
