3rd January 2016 Sunday 3rd January 2016 saw the special remembrance day liveried Great Western HST powercar lead a service to London in stunning lighting. The striking powercar was No.43172 was originally outshopped in time for remembrance day 2015 and named 'Harry Patch'. Since then we had yet to feature this powercar as its workings in the South West have been somewhat elusive. The black full-body vinyl with a stunning poppy field setting on the site is undoubtedly the best powercar re-livery which First Great Western has produced. No.43172 'Harry Patch' and partner No. 43160 'Castle-an-Dinas' are pictured passing the sodden Somerset Levels leading the 1A83 09:45 Penzance - Paddington service. (Photo: Adam Snow)
