The pics of the 47+HST are interesting as they show the coupling rod. What dragged the HST into Paddington? I also like http://rjhamilton.fotopic.net/p33677509.html Also, is there only one 365 in FCC livery?

Thanks for the comments

Apparently, there was a fault with the HST somewhere in the West. It was fixed and continued to Paddington, but fear of it failing again made the decision for it to be towed back to Old Oak. I was shocked to see the 47 sitting on platform 2 on the way in, I was supposed to go to Euston to see the 87!

I know 365505 is also in FCC, didn't realise there was more than one!
