43un1.jpg (120663 bytes)

Class 43 HST power car.

An unidentified single Class 43 power car is seen approaching Craiglockhart Junction from the Gorgie branch of the Edinburgh Suburban Freight Lines on (Date unknown, possibly early 1990's).
While it is a common sight to find these power cars on their own stabled in or moving around within depot confines, it is very rare to find them operating on their own out on the main line which makes this a rare Picture. The fact that it is also running on a freight only line makes this picture even rarer.

This may have actually been a service train...only it also included Test Car No 5. Now how often do you see an HST with a working pantograh? Note also that the power car's number was carried somewhat boldly on the front at this time. The train is seen here arriving at Leeds in 1989 we think.
