History
This is a Motor Second coach, one of five coaches that make up a Class 800 bi-mode train. It is part of the Hitachi AT300 series of trains which initially replaced HSTs on GWR, branded ‘Intercity Express Train’ (IET) and as ‘Azumas’ on the East Coast Main Line. This vehicle is decorated in the brand-new Great British Railways (GBR) livery which is set to appear on trains during 2026.
