Description
In this quick little video, Transport for Wales Class 158 units, 158827 and 158826, are seen powering through Pontypool & New Inn station on a passenger service run heading from Cardiff Central to Manchester Piccadilly.

A few minutes later, Locomotive Services Class 37s, 37667 and 37521, are seen taking a blood and custard coloured Mk1 coach, which is acting as a barrier vehicle for a Mk3 Blue Pullman coach with HST Cab 43049 'Neville Hill' seen on the rear of the short consist. The stock move was heading from Eastleigh Arlington to Crewe H.S.

43049 is one of the many Ex-CrossCountry HST cabs that was painted in classic Swallow Livery during its runs with CrossCountry, and has recently undergone a full repaint into eye-catching Midland Pullman livery.
