Although in the late 1970s they were frowned upon by many for
replacing a number of loco-hauled services, and indeed locomotives,
for 40 years the High-Speed Train (HST) was the mainstay of express
services for many train operators in the UK. It was in the former
Western Region of British Rail that they first made their mark in
service, and they were on duty there from their earliest days until
2019 when, after years of sterling work, they were withdrawn from
frontline express duties. Illustrated with over 190 colour
photographs, this book looks at the history of many of the power
cars that worked in the region and details the varied Western
Region locations, some off the beaten track, where they could be
seen operating during their four decades of service. 190 colour
