Superb lighting at Cholsey on 27 June 1998, as 43178 heads westwards with the 1C62 17:45 Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads Great Western Trains service. In their two years of operation, before being bought out by First Group, Great Western Trains managed to get quite a lot of their HSTs into this attractive 'Merlin' livery, although not the whole train in this case.
