RMweb Gold The Pilotman Posted May 11, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) An unidentified HST passes through Theale with a down West of England train (mid-late 80s). I must have been mad to go out photographing trains on a day like that. This was the only train I saw and I had to cycle up a steep hill to get home.  Edited May 11, 2020 by Western Aviator 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
