The one colourful addition to GWR's drab dark green IET fleet. 800008's 'Pride Stripes', photographed while the unit was standing at Charlbury station on 3 July 2021 with the 1W14 09:50 Paddington to Hereford service. This view also shows the yaw damper bolster, the component that caused so much trouble when fatigue cracks were discovered in some of the fleet. |
