RMweb Premium Ncarter2 Posted February 15, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 15, 2018 Good evening all, I was wondering if anyone could help me determine if Virgin’s buffer fitted HST’s worked West Coast Holyhead trains or Cross Country also? I am looking to model a buffer fitted version for both Virgin and GNER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

45125 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 The Virgin Cross Country and West Coast HST powers cars were in effect a common fleet. The power cars would be used everywhere the sets went. Al Taylor Ex VXC Riding Inspector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
