DESIGN: HST’s began replacing earlier Type 4 and Type 5 diesels on all principal non-electrified routes in the mid to late 1970’s. Forty years on, sets of eight Mk 3 coaches with a diesel power car at each end operate on all non-electrified main lines, Great Western, Midland Main Line and Cross Country, as well as services out of Euston and Kings Cross where only part of the route is electrified. Probably the most successful product of the diesel age, forecasts suggest they could be in service for another thirty years.
LIVERYThere was a further and final change of coach livery under British Rail. There was a further and final livery change of coach livery under British Rail in 1982 from blue and grey to one of the new sector liveries. Beige and grey or black with a red stripe became standard for Inter-City services.
