In early 2024 the number of GWR IETs running with their nose doors open seems to have increased dramatically. 800036 Dr Paul Stephenson OBE passes South Marston on 19 January 2024 with the 1G17 13:32 Paddington to Cheltenham Spa service. Although I only saw this one westbound train with its doors open, for some unexplained reason almost half of the trains travelling on the opposite direction had the nose cone doors open! |
