100 MPH
I have visited Yatton on a number of occasions and I am grateful to local Flickrite, Tom Harper for inspiration to use the infrastructure on the station and this is the first time I have 'snapped' this view. I have made a search, but cannot find any reference to any of the buildings being 'listed', if that is correct, very well done to whoever is responsible for the structures, it is a fine station with lots of obvious history.
One of our reasons (see image 'No Interest') for our visit on 25 July 2023 was to see some genuine full length HSTs as they race through the station, the line speed is 100 mph here and if the train seen was not doing the line speed it was probably not far off. Arriva Cross Country's 43239 with 43301 at the rear pound through working 1S51, the 12.27 Plymouth to Glasgow Central. What a great way to travel such a long journey, I for one, will be very sad to see them withdrawn, something that is expected to happen this year.
