East Midlands Railway 43318/43307 (28.08.2020)

Right, let's move on from the 66's and onto something else for a change and why not because this is the second red set to enter service with East Midlands Railway. Because of one of the coaches having not yet been fit for purpose however, it meant this was reduced to seven cars from the usual eight due to the East Midlands Trains liveried spares not being compatible with this rake. 43318 and 43307 bring in the latest newbie to East Midlands Railway into Nottingham with a service from London St Pancras before enjoying a nice break before departing back out on the 13:45 service.
