Cross Country 170107 arrives into Gloucester station forming the 11.45 Cardiff Central to Nottingham. In the halcyon days of British Rail, this working would have been handled by a rake of 6 or so coaches, perhaps Mk.1s, and a hefty locomotive up front. Class 45 'Peaks' were synonymous with this route for some years, how things have changed, for the better, I'll let you decide?
