In the 1970s, BR decided to upgrade its main-line express diesel locomotives, and based on lessons from the high-speed Class 55 Deltics, they developed the HST which could travel at up to 125 mph (201 km/h), using two power cars each with a 12-cylinder Paxman Valenta, running at 1,500 rpm and developing 2,250 bhp (1,680 kW). The HST is replaced by the Hitachi Super Express.
In 2019, GWR unveiled a series of new cast nameplates with ‘Castle’ names that applied to its HST power cars in shortened 2+4 formations, to run between Bristol and Penzance. This train is in that configuration. The model used here, however, is 43041 “Meningitis Trust”.
