End of Virgin HSTs at Bangor

Most Euston to Holyhead services are worked by HSTs or Inter-City 125s from September 1991 to May 2004.


A normal scene at Bangor as 43121 calls with 1A49 09:26 Holyhead - London on 11 February 2004


43094 draws into Belmont Tunnel with the 1D87 08:40 London - Holyhead on 11 February 2004


A snowy scene as 43084 County of Derbyshire arrives with the 1D87 08:40 London - Holyhead on 27 February 2004


43123 arrives with the 1A77 13:41 Holyhead - London Euston on 7 May


Some power cars had Virgin removed before the end such as 43098 seen leaving on 7 May


I rode the 1A49 09:26 Holyhead - London from Bangor to Chester on 11 May.

The last one was 22nd May but I was on holiday.
