Even 40 years from now the HST won't have been beaten. Nothing will compare to a Valenta HST IMO. Just love them !
Another great and unique video. I'll put my neck on the block and say the best HST livery still remains the GNER mallard livery. Theres been nothing quite the same before or after.
Couldn't agree more
I have my dad's from the 70s with lights that still works after 50 years
My first ever set was a 125 or class 43 way back in my youth... still have it running strong back at my parents house, some going as I’m 42 now she’s a classic
keith gilham still got mine as well from the late 70’s and still runs. Was the basic starter set oval plus a first class coach as a Christmas present.
Iconic train . Surely the best British train ever . At one stage BR had more 125mph trains than anywhere else
I have a Hornby train set in my loft that I got for my birthday .This video gave me lots of inspiration
Thanks Richard, brilliant run. A South African in love with British railways, anything 70’s and younger 🚂♥️
My first train set was back in 1993, and it was a HST 125 Swift livery train set.
I may lean towards steam because of watching all the connecting rods moving around. But, since the HST was my first train set, it has a special place in my mind, heart and model railway collecting history.
Wow ! What a beautiful Model Railway , I am now 79 Years of age but I still love Model Railway , this one must be as good as it gets. Peter from Jersey C.I.
I can remember asking and asking for a Hornby intercity HST set for xmas in 1989 when I was 4. My folks told me santa had forgot it then a little while later in the morning they took me into a different room in the house from my other presents and it was wizzing around in the dark and I can remember all you could see was the headlights on the train. It is one of my earliest memories.
Used to love watching the HST’s whizz past at Hendon Station back in the late 70’s ... who’d have thought they’d have been running over 40 years later !!
They can't run the Exeter - Waterloo route through Salisbury as they can't get past Andover. Apparently the wheelboxes interfere with the third rail on the run into Basingstoke
Amazing. Got to love the Intercity swallow livery
I'm lucky to have EMR Class 43s run past my house every day.
I’m guessing you don’t sleep at night
Some of the last left
Not anymore there gone now

Always great to see full length HST's running. 👍🏻
I received my GWR HST today, runs really well, I am very pleased, it is the lower-priced version from the train pack, I can't justify spending the £260 plus on a motorised toy loco.
Absolutely amazing video showcase of a great train. Got all of them, got 12 power car sets and with full coach sets! Many monies! Just got my hands on the 40th anniversary western region blue and grey pack! My favourite! Thank you for the video. Pleasure to watch!
Liked your narration. Currently I have ten pairs in my collection, all with sound and improved speakers. The latest two sets, ordered this evening.
Ha your collection is always growing
Although it’s not my favourite paint scheme the intercity has a special place in my heart from Trainz driver 💜
Great look at the HST's, fantastic sound you can get now if you've got the right set-up and decoder.
I really like the Network rail yellow!
great video well done guys! Swallow livery FTW!
Absolutely Awesome Hornby Magazine well done on an outstanding video on an outstanding train class
I always buy the Hornby magazine
One time quite a few years ago i did something i quite like doing, riding around London on the trains, and on one occasion i decided to go to Paddington station, and when i got up to the main concourse who else was there to greet me other then 43002, Sir Kenneth Grange, so that was nice
Without a doubt the greatest train Britain has ever made.
HSTs are beautiful. Absolutely beautiful
I got a Virgin HST in 2007, beautiful train and still my favourite.
I can't believe it's been over 16 months that 43002 has Retired along with other HSTs on the Great Western Mainline i had some good memories with Sir Kenneth over the last 4 years
Yellow certainly suits the HST and the engineering train certainly looks cool.
A Grand Central HST Hornby set would be quite cool in my opinion
Love the Network Rail yellow unit - I have the carriages here in New Zealand, but desperately waiting for the power unit and dummy car (R3769) to arrive - we are out of stock of just about everything Hornby down here, due to COVID 19. I have a list a mile long of items to buy!
Well you'll get more now hornby n rails have parted company lol
Very well presented as usual Richard. My favourite diesel!
Thanks chap
Any HST video gets an automatic like from me :).
Amazing to see all them HST together
Thanks Matt
Goodness I agree. Love both of your channels
Superb! Thank you. My original H HST still runs well.
The variant of this train in Australia is still the only 'high speed train' being widely used. The XPT was Introduced in 1981 the fleet is being run into the ground. Still no word on any replacements.
Felt a bit of nostalgia.
I’m 13
I'm 14
Edit me to
Wow seeing all these people made me realise I’m not the weird kid playing with trains in their teens 🤣
GWR and Scotrail liveries are very nice
I do love the flying banana!
Great idea and nicely done.
just been on 2 ScotRail ones this week - if only we had the space for a layout! ;)
Just beautiful. And wonderful background music as well. I do like to see a bit of weathering, but, realize that’s a personal thing.
Who doesn't love an HST. Great video as ever guys
Thanks James
Got to love a Paxman HST winding up.
Stunning layout and camera work ...love the Gwr
Great video.
I need to get myself more mk3s to finish off rakes, and then the power cars to match. I've got 6 rakes, but only 3 pairs of power cars.
That was excellent who doesn’t love the HST s thanks Richard
You're welcome Kenny!
I just picked up my 21st set yesterday 😀😀 the cross country HST train pack, bet you couldn't fit all of them on the layout lol
That’s great my fav livery if the class 43 is the cross country I love them and they are so interesting only if you could fit them on
@@BrelodRail most definitely 😀😀
@@BrelodRail no probs 😀
Wonderful filming and very smooth running trains.....
Enjoyed the review, ScotRail is my favorite paint scheme.
How is it that the first and last GWR HST looks better with the Dapol N gauge, good job you don't do N gauge anymore.
And I thought I had it bad, don't you just love 125's
Must be HST in the air today Richard... took delivery of my Dapol HST-P N Gauge very nice model, shame though the Inter City logo is on the wrong end on one side :(
Nice. Love the scotrail my personal favourite livery. The gwr is growing on me now I have the first and last set. Shame the xc wasn't there very smart in the livery with the SD coaches.
What a lot of HSTs!!!!!
I’m in love don’t tell the wife.
The HST's are nice too ? ;)
I am so jealous about all them trains Good vid😉
Great running session swallow livery for me
Layout looks good too
I have to agree the engine In the swallow livery is lush and it is also my favourite too
I love the Network rail, scot rail, swallow, HST and GWR which I think are all of them
Amazing! Thank you...
I'm just getting back into the hobby, I would like a mid to late '80s HST that used to run Kings Cross to Edinburgh, as I used to get off at Peterborough. What HST do I need?
Marvellous video Richard, got to admit I still miss new junction 😢
New New Junction is coming 🤭😉
I want a HST!
I just don’t know which livery, probably GWR, even though I model the ECML
Like the high shine on the HST, Paint work look a lot better for it.
There Will never be anything like a HST
This underlines the problem. To look good you need both the power cars and carriages in the same livery. Local model shop has some nice Scotrail power cars but is it worth buying when no carriages around? You can't buy one without the availability of the other.
Imagine going to work and enjoying your job every day. Not envious in the slightest!
I Love Inter city 125 is my favourite train
Very nice mate
After doing a small bit of research on trains for a little personal project I'm working on I kinda fell down a rabbit hole. Can't say I'm disappointed though
I still like the early BR Intercity livery best
Do you have any video of your layout construction
Hi, I have just watched and enjoyed your HM159 Hornby HST takeover Topley Dale. I noticed straight away, the glossy appearance, but not on the sets that I have. Have yours
been sprayed, or treated some how?? Thank you. John
Hi John, no ours are all standard. The new GWR set has a glossy finish out of the box
Love this Richard, can we have a 00 vs N gauge 43 off lol. Cheers Geoff
Ooh now that's a suggestion, I've got a few N gauge HSTs...
I’ve yet to get one of these
But omg I really want
Got old set of hst were can you get traction rubber wheels from
How did you made the bridge and the mountain
It's almost (almost) a pity that I singularly model the Big Four-era LNER; that Scotrail HST set looks like it would be a nice compromise between prototypical realism, and space requirements.
Was planning to buy a complete set, but just seeing the huge gap between all the carriages really kills it for me😅
Check out our Hunts coupling video 😉
@@hornbymag Its an imrpovement, but (imo)still not good enough. I've got some German, Czech, Polish and Swiss trains driving around my layout where it seems as iff the coaches are ''glued together''. Especially the Roco IC2000 looks amazing and gentle to the eye.
Brilliant
east midlands trains class 43 has left the chat
Great stuff Richard
Thanks!
I always liked the gner version
Very nice, just not enough room for the new xc set
There seems to be a slight trackwork issue as the flying banana leaves the station - is there a piece of track that's missed the fishplate?
Might be dirty track
@@hornbymag Could be, but it looks like the train drops by a millimetre or so :)
Hi Hornby magazine love the hst trains is it possible to get class 158 Hornby trains
Lots of Hst’s nice
I guess Hornby are very Britain-centric in their range, but I do wonder if iconic trains worldwide, such as the various Japanese bullet trains, would sell.
Hi Richard you need a New South Wales set from Australia
That would be awesome
HST`s forever !
Noooooo! "The" workhouse is the 150 sprinters!!
Hornbys gloss finish needs to be extended to other models like a newly outshopped Class 87 in Executive livery.....
noooo looks to toylike
Hi, yes? I'll take seven.
Hi, I like them mice to drive i drove a number of them in my 50yrs on the footplate 8yrs on steam Regards Phil.
I have never been one for sound effect units in RC models ( I used to scratch build RC model boats) that sound unit in 43101 sounds more like a hair dryer operating....
Please can you send me the catalogue number for the Intercity blue/grey buffet and guard
Rest in pieces topley dale
