Three Generations - a photo on Flickriver

Three Generations

            Three generations of East Coast Motive power conveniently align at London Kings Cross on Saturday morning.

HST 43319 awaits departure at the head of the 1S18 11:35 to Edinburgh Waverley, Class 91, 91125 awaits departure with an empty stock back to Neville Hill, Leeds runnings as 5Z11 11:03 Neville Hill TRSMD, then the new kid on the block and also my train back to Leeds, Azuma 800107 with 1D14 11:30 Leeds.

Now if I’d managed to blag a ride on the empty stock 91, we be back in Leeds an hour and half before the Azuma, the 91 was the last service up the ECML beyond Peterborough due to planned engineering work around Newark / Grantham the Azuma and following HST had a pleasant detour through Spalding, Lincoln and Gainsborough.

This was my first experience of an LNER Azuma, and in all honesty I don’t know what all the moans and groans are about, the seat reservation worked a treat, we had a standard class table, which aligned perfectly with the window, the ride was smooth and fast on electric and I hardly noticed the switch from electric to diesel and back. The seats, after 3 and a half hours were just fine, and on the plus side we arrived back in Leeds bang on time.
