Player
Description
Saturday October 3rd 2026 and we have a 50th Anniversary HST pass through South Wales. In its original livery, the run to Swansea was a very special tour to cover, so the choice of clips where high speed was covered was achieved.
On the same day Nick took me down to see the remains of Aberthaw Power Station, it was quite a shock to see how quickly the demolition had taken place. The final block is due to be remove immanently. Photos of the HST by Nick.
