wiggoforgold Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 This week First Great Western have been trialling their "new" mini HST down here. To me, it looks like an HST cut down to four cars to get new life out of old stock. Is there more to this than meets the eye? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold TravisM Posted March 23, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 23, 2018 FGW have been talking about this for several years with one power car and a DVT at the other end but it proved to be impractical or overly expensive. One suggestion was the Cardiff - Taunton service but I have no idea what they plan to use them for, maybe Bristol TM to Weymouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
