LNER, Class 43 HST Train Pack - Era 11 (2 Car Pack)

Unit number 43238 was built in February 1977 and would go on to serve BR high speed services in both the BR blue and grey livery as well as the InterCity executive guise. By 2019 the unit would find itself in service with LNER, awaiting a transition to service with the East Midlands Railway.
In preparation for this the locomotive was painted out of its LNER colour scheme and into an all over red scheme with a yellow front panel, a livery which could simply have a vinyl EMR loco added to it when the time came to transition companies. This colour led to the unit being nicknamed the 'Flying Tomato'.
Unit 43305 entered service in the winter of 1978 with BR initially in the blue and grey livery before transitioning to the InterCity livery in line with the rest of the class as BR high speed services forged an identity of its own. By the late 2010's the locomotive was in service with LNER painted in their standard livery. After transitioning to East Midlands Railway with much of the LNER fleet the locomotive is currently in storage.
