Each auditorium has three permanent wheelchair spaces (two in the third row and one in the front row) and 153 fixed seats with capacity for a further three spaces in the front row. Access to each auditorium is up a ramp. There are also a number of seats with step-free access. East Coast did experiment with their own livery, too – as seen here, embellishing 43299. Grand Central By 2004, the ‘teardrop’ disaster was over, replaced by this much more toned-down livery with a simple fading pink leaf and gold stripe. Midland Mainline (2004)

And from one Best Impressions creation to another, it’s Virgin Trains East Coast’s devilishly sexy red and silver livery. The way the original light bar is extended and flared across the bodyside in silver is a masterstoke – and those coaches trailing behind, adorned in diagonal-leaning red stripes, are a sight to behold when you see one at full tilt. GWR green As far as HST liveries go, Cross Country’s maroon and silver colour scheme isn’t a bad effort! Their stylised ‘X’ is a nice touch, echoing the pointy nose of the loco.

Just make sure not to get lost, or you might not finish your potty training in time! What else you should know I was an apprentice at Crewe works at the same time and the first few up to 43006 were definitely painted the same when built but repainted before leaving the works – the first one I recall seeing leaving the works with the blue banded end was 43008 coupled to another seen from my classroom in the works training school as it passed the Crewe Works train platform alongside the electric depot in late autumn 1975 – I also remember our instructor..possibly titled chief instructor..Mr Shilton saying he thought the change to the blue band was the right decision and thinking that I agreed with him..

The new EMT livery was by me, here at DGDESIGN. m360 worked on the EMT brand including the ‘train device’. DGDESIGN were commissioned to work on the ‘new’ buffer sets and together with EMT decided to align the exterior livery with the wider brand material. The Best Impressions livery is well loved, so we didn’t throw it out, just evolved the themes. So the colours and ‘swooshes’ are new, the gradient fade is new, and the carriages are simplified. The trains had very short access to the paint-shop, which limited the number of processes/layers we could do, so much is done with vinyls, which in-turn enabled the gradient fade which looks so good. Barbican Cinema 2 & 3 are located on Beech Street, a short walk from the Barbican’s Silk Street entrance. From Silk Street, you’ll see a zebra crossing that will take you over the road to the venue. For clarity, we’re not including allover advertising paint-jobs, small amendments, temporary bastardisations or special commemorative colour schemes here. That would just be ridiculous.Two boxes at the rear of the auditorium each have space for one wheelchair user and a companion. Please book early and ask for these seats. First Great Western attempted to graft its corporate bus livery onto the HST fleet in 2003, but it didn’t go well. This was the result. First Great Western – let’s try that again

The prototype HST power cars, along with their rake of Mk3 coaches, were painted in this fetching, modern blue and grey livery, with full yellow ends. In a bizarre turn of events, Cotswold Rail turned one of their HSTs, 43087, into a life-size Hornby model! First Great Western ‘dynamic lines’ Somebody’s Bomb Ass Dog Walker Shirt, Funny Dog Walker Shirt, Dog Lover Shirt, Dog Trainor Shirt, Dog Owner Shirt, Shirt for Dog WalkerIn 1987, BR again updated its Intercity brand, with the introduction of the ‘Swallow’. This did away with the yellow altogether, save for the front ends, and brought the red line and white base from the coaches all the way across the loco. And it saw the introduction of that iconic flying swallow logo,too. Great Western ‘Merlin’ Pink Flower With Long Train Dress, Birthday Tute, Tulle Dress, Toddler Tulle Tutu, Ball Gown Detachable Train, Prom Dance Dress Not content with their previous hundred liveries, First Great Western launched yet another livery upon their HST fleet in 2006 –‘dynamic lines’. It didn’t last very long on the HST power cars at all – little over a year – which is a shame, because it was easily the best of the bunch. East Midlands Trains have ‘updated’ their livery on the power cars with the buffers they acquired from Grand Central. I believe it’s from m360.co.uk . It omits the white on the rear of the power car,and the orange horizontal line on the coaches .

Built between 1975 and 1982, the Intercity 125 ‘HST’ trains are officially the fastest diesel trains ever produced anywhere in the world, setting a record of 148mph in 1987 which STILL hasn’t been beaten. We are within walking distance from a number of London Underground stations, the closest being Barbican, St Paul’s and Moorgate. The nearest train stations are Liverpool Street and Farringdon. Bus Route 153 runs directly past the Barbican along Chiswell StreetLevel access from the Pit floor foyer only to the two boxes (see Mobility below). All other seats lead off stepped aisles.
