A quick round trip to Brum and Bristol 22/04/2009.

23rd April 2009

On the 22nd April I set off to Euston to travel on the loco hauled set of coached to Birmingham. I was stood on the ramp waiting for boarding to commence when the stock left. I was a bit peeved to have the set replaced by a 390 but still went to Birmingham on it. At Birmingham I transferred to a XC HST for the run to Bristol. This was my first run on a refurbished XC HST and was very impressed with it. It goes to show that refurbs can be done with passenger comfort in mind (FGW please note). Then a run from Bristol to Reading where I alighted with a headache as is usual on FGW HSTs. Dinner in Reading then 166 to Paddington and 350 to Tring.
