These shots are all from the same day, first is of the first ever nine car Meridian service operated, from the second station it ever called at.

And the second is of the SVR, they had the Black 5, Prarie Tank, Pannier Tank, and Stanier Mogul out in service on Timetable B.

Nice pictures there. I'm not a fan of the idea of getting rid of the HST, but hey.

Also nice photos...just to add my opinion on HSTs going...i like the train immensely, but at least this way brand new trains don't sit about festering! It also means that power cars out of service can be used to give spares to keep others going longer?

Cheers
