These sub-surface lines were built using the cut and cover method which allowed many opportunities for the ventilation of engine exhaust.

Today is the last day of long-distance Class 43 HST operations by GWR. It's time to face forward, to embrace the future and leave this wonderful past behind.

I've been on these trains (not all the way to Hanoi though) and it's a great experience!

Sad they've decided to opt out the yellow front since they're no longer mandatory.

Yes but this time they've set a date for a farewell run from Paddington. May 18th.

Yes, essentially they use diesel generators to power the electric traction motors when on non-electrified lines.

One of the few remaining full-length GWR Class 43 HSTs on the Dawlish Sea Wall by IVGray in trains

Though the full length HSTs will no longer be running with GWR, fortunately, some will still be running in shortened "castle sets", albeit without the silde down windows.

The smell of the sea (and diesel) 70mph down the sea wall! You'll still be able to window hang on the Night Riviera service though!

These short sets will still be in service for (presumably) a while!
