A closeup of the nameplacte on Class 43 HST powercar 43174 "Bristol - Bordeaux" as it stands at Bristol Parkway station at the rear of a Frist Great Western London-South Wales intercity service. Bordeaux, by far the largest city in south-western France is the obvious twin-town of Bristol, which is by far the largest city in south-western England. That they are both ports on major estuaries makes this link all the more apropriate.
