I would like to know the formation of the HST sets that ran the Euston-Holyhead services for Virgin.
I've been trying to get an idea based on pictures from google searches, knowing vaguely what the formation will be. I'm looking for sets around 2000-2002ish, but the pictures I have seen have left me wondering what the actual formation was.
Some pictures show a 2+8 formation with a first class buffet and two first open coaches, whilst others show a 2+7 formation with a standard class buffet and one first class coach. I've even seen a picture of a 2+8 set with a standard class buffet and two first opens.
Does anyone know the usual formation?
