The penultimate southbound CrossCountry HST passes Bredon's Norton in murky conditions on 16 September 2023, with 43321 leading and 43378 bringing up the rear of the 1V44 06:09 Leeds to Plymouth service. This should have actually been the very last southbound train, but the following day 43366 & 43303 worked the 5Z43 09:23 Neville Hill to Laira ECS, which unexpectedly turned into the 1Z52 12:12 Birmingham New Street to Plymouth relief service.
