43092 Islip 7 May 2018

Unfamiliar territory for a HST. 43092 passes through Islip station on 7 May 2018 with the diverted 1C24 16:27 Paddington to Penzance GWR service. Given the rarity of the traction at this location, and the guaranteed sunshine, I was surprised that there were so few photographers around. Even more strange considering the iconic HSTs are not likely to feature in many more such diversions.
