It has been a while ago since I last seen the Class 43 Measurement Train. The Last Time I saw the train was 2018 at Truro Station.
I had Friday 7th May off from work so I decided to go and spot the Class 43 Set is Heading to and from Penzance From Reading. So I decided to head up to film the set pass at Lostwithiel & Par Station. Also 43299 is currently operating the Network Rail HST set, which previously operated for VTEC, LNER & EMR before being transferred over to Network Rail while they carry out maintenance work to 43013 & 43014. I don't know if this is temporary and then head to storage after they complete it's maintenance. 43290 is also a spare for Network Rail which the fleet size for the Class 43 is 5 PC's. 43013, 43014 & 43062 are the Banana Sets & 43290 & 43299 are the Red Tomato Sets.
Details:
Set: 43062 (John Armitt) + 977995 + 977994 + 977993 + 975814 + 977984 + 43299
