No doubt about it. A Mk 3 coach is one superb bit of kit. Even done up as a toasted sunflower, class will out.

The MkII in the set looks good too. Should be a great sight when it starts roaming the network and the sun comes out, it was a dreadful day in Derby when this was taken :o(

The whole set looked stunning in the sunshine at Darlington on 8/9 May - sunglasses might be needed next time the HST is out in good weather though!

Another generator/messing vehicle, not actually carrying any track recording gear.
