Joe were you on the 0826 off slough (boarding at maidenhead though), 0902 off Reading and delayed 1040 off BTM services? Myself and my dad were on all 3, at Reading Sprinter joined us and TicketMan from railchat joined at BTM. I was in coach E of the HST and coach B of the Adelante.

Nice one
hahaha.... And I got the 0831 Cl180 from Platform 1... Which went to Reading Non-stop, i think it was a train going to Great Malvern..

However upon arrival to Reading the driver departed and showed the Duty Manager his Duty Card, to which the driver said look, and he reading a card saying that he has too stop at all stations (i think he was given a 166s D.C not a 180...) Very odd....

Ah come to think of it I don't think we were on the same HST! The leading power car was 43189 "Railway Heritage Trust" and it was in reverse formation.

The 180 was going to Worcester Foregate St I think, not sure. I did wonder why the 180 was stopped for longer than usual at Reading!

 

[joeholmes]

No i was on 43189... Im sure of it, was that the 0907 departure from RDG

 

[16CSVT2700]

43189 and myself were on the 0902 off RG. The front power car on your HST set doesn't have a name. Here's my pic of 43189 on the Westbury Avoider:
