East Midlands Railway 40751 (10.03.2020)

Now LNER have withdrawn all of their HST sets, including the NN65 set, this buffet car is now effectively with East Midlands Railway. As all of their eight car HST sets are due to be replaced with ones cascaded from LNER, all HST rolling stock and spares are to retain their old liveries. 40751, a mark III kitchen buffet first, is seen at Nottingham Station in Virgin Trains East Coast livery whilst in use on an HST set. A peek into the future perhaps but there will be no HST's come 2021 with East Midlands Railway mind, so even the LNER sets that are replacing these will be withdrawn by the end of this year, so catch the HST's while you can!
