It's fantastic to see 41001 now running with the three matching MK3s. Does anyone know if the operators are planning to expand their collection in the future?
And do they have a long-term plan to secure a production HST Power Car once they're retired for the other end, or has that much not been established yet?
I was trying to think the other day what they could do in that respect - the prototype and the production versions have never worn the same liveries so even if they bought a 43, they'd either have to have half the rake in one scheme and half the rake in the reverse.
Thoughts? Purely hypothetical rambles welcome!
