An original 35mm colour slide showing HST Power Car W43012 from Set 253006 standing alongside Class 52 D1068 ‘Western Reliance’ at Paddington in September, 1976.  The image was taken a month before the start of the Western Region’s winter timetable when HSTs were timetabled to work at their planned 125 mph maximum  speed.   At the time this image was taken they were timetabled to a 100 mph maximum

 

The image has no visible scratch marks but, despite cleaning with a photographer’s ‘blower brush’, may have some minor residual dried on dirt.  This, however, does not impinge on the image when viewed.  It was taken using Kodak film and is housed in a standard cardboard mount as used by that company.

 

The mount is also in good condition.

 

The image was taken by and is owned by Paul Dalton (my brother). It is being sold here on his behalf and with his full approval.

 

The image has been scanned in for this sale but has not been amended in any way from the original.

 

Copyright is currently owned by Paul Dalton but this will transfer to the new owner.
