Timed my trip home from work perfectly, today, to catch a full panorama view of this magnificent lady passing under the Browney Lane bridge between Durham and Ferryhill. What a wonderful surprise...a beautiful and elegant train, she will be missed.
I couldn't stop and get a photo in time, so I borrowed the ones below from friends who 'met her' further down the line.
A beautiful lady...

Freshly repainted in original BR livery for her farewell tour.
Timeless design, imo...

They certainly sound brilliant when giving it some beans!
It was such a shame that we squandered our chance with the APT. We could have been way ahead of the field if we'd financed it properly!

Savvy, I like how the Intercity 125 colours match the colours in your signature at the bottom of your posts. Coincidence? Were you subconsciously drawn to it ?
