I chose the HST because next month sees the 30th anniversary of the introduction of 125 m.p.h. running, and that's go to be some record.
Chris.
The prototype 125 began running between Paddington and Bristol in 1975. And in October 1976, the first scheduled 125mph services started. And, unlike the high-speed trains in France or Japan, passengers on the 125 did not have to pay a premium for the express service.
