Taken 02/02/18; Although they displaced many of the favourite diesels of my spotting years, the HST125s/Class 43s are indisputably a remarkably long-lived class. No. W43002 the first production power car of set 253001 was repainted in original livery for the 40th-year celebrations in 2016 and named 'Sir Kenneth Grange'. Sir Kenneth was responsible for the aerodynamics, interior layout and exterior styling of the nose cone of the HST 125s.
