Shortly before the class was replaced by the new Class 800 bi-mode units on these trains, 165103 approaches Hungerford Common on 15 May 2019 with the 1K18 15:06 Paddington to Bedwyn GWR service. I suppose the change from a 165 to a 800 is an upgrade, but the change from the HSTs that used to operate the long distance trains on this route, to a 800 is a definite downgrade! |
